Justin Worrell
Justin Worrell is a Virginia-based tonalist landscape artist. An oil painter, Worrell applies paint thinly and uses a dry brush technique to create dreamy, atmospheric, contemporary tonalist works that seek a balance between the temporal and eternal realms, hoping to arrive at a heightened spiritual existence.
Originally painting as a hobby when time allowed, Worrell began more formal training as an oil painter around 2014. During this period, he studied at the Art League in Alexandria, Virginia, under the tutelage of local artist Mike Francis. Deeply passionate about American tonalism, Worrell quickly found inspiration from Dennis Sheehan and has attended workshops and study sessions with Sheehan in his studio in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Worrell is a juried member of the Oil Painters of America and an Exhibiting Member with the Art League. His work is exhibited and collected both nationally and regionally in the Mid-Atlantic area, and he has received several awards recognizing the merit of his art. Worrell currently resides in Springfield, Virginia, with his wife, Janessa, and their two children.
