Whether she is working in pastel, oil or watercolor she’s inspired to capture a moment by painting light and atmosphere to express emotion. Vianna believes painting is a journey of creative study and encourages her students to learn the fundamentals so they express their own artistic voice.

Vianna is a popular and passionate instructor and teaches workshops nationally and abroad. She has a BS in Education from Eastern Michigan University but credits her art education to books, long hours at the easel, and the generosity of talented friends. Vianna is a signature member of the Pastel Society of America and has achieved Distinguished Pastellist status in the Pastel Society of the West Coast. She was inducted into the International Association of Pastel Societies Master Circle in 2011 and achieved Eminent Pastelist status in 2015 and earned signature member status in the Michigan Watercolor Society in 2020.

Stunning feature. The point about building an artistic voice through fundamentals is so underrated these days. Too many skip straight to 'expresion' without the technical backbone, but Szabo's trajectory shows how mastery in multiple mediums amplifies creative flexibilty. Kinda makes sense why she's such an effective teacher.
