Join Norfolk Arts as we welcome Virginia Beach based, award-winning, Plein Air and Studio painter, Doug Clarke for his solo exhibition at the Tidewater Community College Visual Arts + Design Center Gallery, 260 Boush St., Norfolk, VA 23510.

Graduating with Honors, Magna Cum Laude, from Virginia Commonwealth University, Doug’s work has evolved from commercial to fine art. As an active member of the Norfolk Drawing Group, Doug strives for excellence in his figure drawings and paintings. His commitment to life drawing and painting, led him outdoors to paint “en plein air”. There he realized his passion for capturing light and nature in his own personal way.

Doug is currently represented by Harbor Gallery, Ellen Moore Gallery and Warm Springs Gallery. In pursuit of mastering his craft, he has participated in local and national plein air events across the country and has won numerous awards. When painting outdoors, Doug is very passionate about capturing the vanishing landscapes of Southeastern Virginia.
