reviews_and_ramblingsDiane Sivavec was born in western Pennsylvania and received her formal education at Syracuse University's School of Visual and Performing Arts.
As a student, her awards included class valedictorian, the Scholar-Athlete of the year award, and Society of Illustrators honors.
She fell in love with the work of the American Impressionists and the realists of the 1900's and began what turned out to be a lifelong dedication to the fine art of painting.
Today one can see in her work the skill she has mastered... that evasive and ever magical look of the effortless hand.
Her ability to skillfully paint the human figure and to capture likenesses have earned her many commissions, from private collectors to the advertising and publishing worlds.
These include Random House, Doubleday, The Hearst Corporation, Scholastic Books, Anheuser-Busch and many others.
Diane's use of harmonious color schemes, dynamic brushwork, and her poetic sensibility continue to inspire those around her.
She currently resides in central New Jersey with her husband and son.
