A daily newsletter featuring today’s finest visual artists.
Important Notice
We are soon changing the name of this newsletter from BoldBrush Collector to FASO Collector. Although we had reasons to use the name BoldBrush, over the years we have discovered that separating our offerings into two brands causes much confusion for most people. So, to solve that issue, we are retiring the BoldBrush name and moving all of our offerings under our main brand, FASO.
Today’s Newsletter is Brought to You by FASO.

BoldBrush Recommends: Kris Parins
Biography
Delight in nature was instilled in Kris in her childhood, spent at the edge of a lake in northern Wisconsin. That same small lake now provides the view and inspiration from the windows of her studio. Her father and her uncle were artists who generously passed on their passion for capturing the natural world in watercolor.
After earning an art degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Kris studied graphic design. As an art director and account executive, she enjoyed creating illustrations for her clients’ product graphics. Since 1999, Kris has directed her creative energy toward fine art. Watercolor’s transparency and vibrancy, combined with an element of surprise, continue to keep her interested in this challenging medium. Frequent travels with her husband, Dick, provide fresh input and continue to inform her way of interpreting the world around her.
When Kris was selected by Watercolor Artist magazine as “One to Watch” her work took on a national and international direction. Four of her paintings are in the permanent collection of the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum, purchased from its Birds in Art exhibitions. Artists’ Network selected Kris to serve as the Animals and Wildlife Category Awards Juror for the Artist Magazine 39th Annual Art Competition.
Her award-winning paintings and articles have served as covers of Watercolor Artist and American Artist Watercolor magazines, and as finalists in the International Artist magazine competitions. Her work is regularly included in the annual publication Splash: the Best of Watercolor. Kris has earned signature status in international watercolor societies: American Watercolor Society, National Watercolor Society, Transparent Watercolor Society, and Watercolor West. She also holds signature status in regional and state societies: Southern Watercolor Society, Florida Watercolor Society, Kentucky Watercolor Society, Missouri Watercolor Society, and Florida Suncoast Watercolor Society. She is an associate member of the Society of Animal Artists.
Her work is in the Collection of the Woodson Art Museum, The National Parks, The University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, West Bend Insurance, Jack Richeson Inc, Robert Stock Collection, and many private collections.
