Mary Jo Van Dell
"Nature, especially the wilderness, is deeply inspiring, and I am intrigued by her mysteries...my work reflects this world and my place in it."
Contemporary landscape oil painter Mary Jo Van Dell was born in St. Paul, Minnesota and began painting at a young age. Today, she has carved out a career in the arts painting full time, while remaining self-taught. Van Dell finds inspiration in the woods, lakes, prairies, coasts, and wilderness areas of the United States and Canada.
Van Dell is recognized for her minimalist technique, limited palette, and the often somber, moody atmosphere of her paintings. Her straightforward approach and ability to captivate her audience emotionally has gained her a strong following of collectors and admirers both nationally and internationally.
Van Dell has exhibited and been part of many solo and group shows throughout the country.
