Lives and works in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Louise Viste-Ross blends abstraction with remnants of formal landscape. She's interested in revealing the processes within a work of art as much the sensual qualities of its theme. Subtle glazes interact; every layer of color changes every other. Method & meaning intertwine to reveal the facts of an image by exposing its making. Embodied in their making, these paintings are about the structures and components of the land; the lifelike interactions between water, air, soil and rock.

Viste-Ross is an alumna of the Minneapolis College of Art and Design & The University of Minnesota, where she graduated Magna Cum Laude with a BFA. Her work is held in a variety of collections, corporate, public & private. She has been selected as an exhibitor across four decades in both public and private venues.
