Virginia Sumner

Working with acrylic and mixed media in a bold vibrant pallet is the focus of Virginia Sumner’s work since 2016.  Virginia's versatility across multiple mediums and her style of working in series entices the viewer along for the journey seeing the world through her unique lens.  When exploring medium and design, Virginia is interweaving curiosity and perception, taking a step forward while holding her breath.  Each piece, each series builds on the last, providing a glimpse of the future.  

Virginia calls the Portland Metro area her home since 1975.  Her family made frequent moves from house to house, each one a
new adventure while they mostly maintained some stability by keeping her the same schools.  These moves totaled more than 20 before her eighteenth birthday.  Reading and creative expression through art were a lifeline during those years. 

During high school a course scheduling conundrum left her choosing between taking either a computer science or an art class.  This serendipitous choice led her on a winding path, unlocking creativity and paving the way for scholarships.  Having fulfilled the first two years course work toward a Fine Arts degree at Oregon State University completing it wasn’t in the cards.  The passion for creating is ever present in Virginia, supplementing her art education through independent study, reading, the internet, classes along with continuous practice.    

Virginia notes that as her journey progresses, she is seeking more opportunities to share her creations, meet new friends and revel in the inspiration that surrounds us all.
