Natalie Kovacs Artist
BIOGRAPHY
Natalie Kovacs spent her childhood in Virginia's rural Shenandoah Valley, showing artistic talent at an early age. Nature was her greatest source of inspiration and continues to be the force that drives her creativity to this day.
As an oil painter Natalie primarily focuses on the Northern California landscape. Her work stems from a deep appreciation of classical realism. She strives to capture the raw beauty of the land, and yet gently pushes the boundaries of light and color.
Her formal art training began in 2006 when she attended the Ashland Academy of Art in southern Oregon and studied under Semyon Bilmes. Her philosophy is that her training is never done and she continues to study within her local art community. She now calls the San Francisco Bay area home.

The Beauty of Nature
Life and nature are similar concepts because nature is the study of how life acts and interacts within the circle of existence.
When we take the time to examine the beauty of the world around us, we are able to see parallels within our own lives.
One who is attuned with nature is attuned with the practice of living.
All of nature moves in a spiral as do our personal lives.
It is important to spend time in nature because
in this way we can become attuned to its wisdom.
On the other hand, when we ignore the beauty of nature and spend our time in an urban jungle our stress levels go up and we begin to feel as
if we are made out of the concrete that we see all around us.
