An impressionist oil painter and instructor, V.... paints on location all across America. “My favorite subjects are coastlands, wild places and the countryside around America's small farms."
Virginia Vaughan's work focuses on special projects that are heartfelt and comprehensive; treating her subjects to documentary style study. She completed 365 daily small works depicting her family's "Last Year on the Farm"' before they moved from their land in 2008. The paintings became a feature in solo shows at various museums, and venues, and the popular TV program Texas Country Reporter, receiving great revues. Many of those 365 works have been collected by patrons all over the world.
V.... follow-up exhibit , “Passing America….” was created in a unique way as she explored America's disappearing family farms. Over 100 small canvases were painted from passenger seats of cars, buses and trains, while V….was “Passing America”. Both shows debuted at the Great Plains Art Museum at the University of Nebraska.ghan
