Hej!

Welcome to my colorful world of contemporary paintings. My name is Tina Rawson and I am a Swedish-American artist who is passionate about creating vibrant paintings that captivate and capture memories. As a female artist and educator, I believe in the power of art to connect people and spark meaningful conversations.

I love making connections with my art. Now offering 'Painted Bubbly', a way to add another level to your gift giving! I paint your bottles with your photo. It's a great way to celebrate, order here please, only for Newburyport and surrounding areas: https://form.jotform.com/242753117379058

And here are some more fun gifts at the shop!

Color, movement and joy sum up my work. I love being outside in nature and capturing that moment. Right now I'm exploring the sea. Mythology excites me as does painting portraiture. Lovely landscapes move me and capturing the right color combination to make something leap off the page is the goal. I love to teach art too! Check out my events!

 

I offer classes in:

Folk Art

Kids Art

Workshops, private lessons and a NEW RETREAT on Saturday, 8/17 on Swedish Folk Art

​

Please click Artwork Archive to buy a beautiful piece of art online, shop here for smaller pieces and merch, visit my studio at 14 Cedar St #319B in Amesbury, or see a show. I will bring my art to your home too so you can play with what works where.

Teacher, Artist, Swedish-American

Art is my preferred mode of expression. I am a teacher by training and experience, a mother by choice and an artist by dint of lots of hard work and lucky genes. My mother, grandfather, and great aunt were all visual artists; and so are my children.

I appreciate all of the arts, and love sharing it with others, whether it be through a beautiful painting, a commissioned piece, a live event painting a workshop or a kids class. I also held a beautiful art retreat in August at Adelynrood!

Here's what some people said recently about my class:

  • Fun event to attend with a friend. Tina was a great teacher

  • The hands-on painting activity (was the best part)

  • It was fun and relaxing

  • Enjoy painting. Nice to learn about Scandinavian folk painting and do one

  • The teacher was friendly and knowledgeable. She provided all the necessary supplies for her class as well as examples. My classmates were a creative and fun group.
