Crystal Newton&rsquo\;s artistic journey began at age 13 when she discovered her passion for drawing. By high school\, her talent was on display at events like the Del Mar Fair\, marking the start of her public art career.
\n\nIn college\, she pursued a degree in Graphic Design\, blending her artistic skills with practical design. Encouraged by professors to further develop her fine art portfolio\, Crystal&rsquo\;s creativity enhanced marketing materials for numerous businesses while she continued to refine her personal art.
\n\nA move to the stunning landscapes of Wallowa County\, Oregon\, gave Crystal the chance to fully embrace her fine art practice. She has since become known for her Plein Air paintings and her passion for teaching watercolor\, sharing her love of art with others inspired by the beauty of the natural world.
