Faye Vander Veer
Waiting in Paris, Oil Painting

2025

About the Item

Artist Comments
This impressionist painting invites a sense of quiet mystery. Artist Faye Vander Veer uses a muted palette with closely related values, allowing the warm sunlight reflecting off the waiters’ uniforms and pavement to softly illuminate the scene. Inspired by a moment in Paris, Faye was drawn to their striking postures—each figure seemingly transfixed by something just beyond the shadows.


About the Artist
Artist Faye Vander Veer seeks out moments with engaging narratives and captures them with an impressionist style. Her dramatic use of color, texture, light and shadow lend a glowing quality, creating an energy all their own. While using her own photographs as a general reference, it is her sensory memory of the event and her emotional reaction that is conveyed on the canvas, causing the viewer to be transported to another time and place. “Painting becomes a language I use to express my emotional response to what is before me and share my experience of the subject with others,“ says Faye.

Summer Reading, Oil Painting
By Sherri Aldawood

In a beautiful, sunlit garden, a young woman immerses herself in the world of literature. Surrounded by flowers, she enjoys the company of words. Bathed in a hazy glow, the scene exudes a timeless and romantic aura.
