Welcome to Van der Elst Fine Art Studio

Artist Statement~

I have had the wonderful experience of traveling and living in various countries. This has given me the ability to see many wonderful sights and the desire to paint and share my experiences. I have been blessed by having more than one fantastic career. I enjoyed my community work particularly the 14 years on the Executive boards of the Ronald McDonald Houses in Utah and Nevada. Now, I feel I need to devote all my time to my painting. Nothing is more rewarding and exciting to me, it consumes my days.
