Florelle is a painter specializing in representational oil portraits and landscapes with a passion for Western art and the relationship between people and place. Her artistic journey began at age eight, evolving from acrylics to watercolor commissions and ultimately oils. After studying under Australian artist Jessica Le Clerc, Florelle returned to St. Louis, earned her Master's in art education, and launched Florelle Studio in 2019.

Since then, she has spent time at Florence Academy of Art in Italy and at Gateway Atelier of Classical Art in St. Louis studying the painting and drawing techniques of the old masters. She recently moved to Oklahoma City to pursue her career in Western Art. Florelle is largely influenced by painters like John Singer Sargent and Jeremy Lipking and she seeks to capture the wild beauty of the land and the story of the people who work and live here. Her work has been accepted into art shows in Missouri, New York City, and was most recently accepted into the small works show at Brennen Fine Art in Scottsdale. A seasoned traveler, her experiences traveling across America, Australia, and other countries continue to fuel her love for adventure and natural beauty, which she expresses in color and paint.
