Life 
This leopard was created using oil paints on dream canvas. It was inspired by a photo taken at the Philadelphia Zoo.
Phyllis Corwin has been painting since taking a class in 1994 with her sister. She is the featured artist for March at the Camas Gallery and has exhibited her work in galleries all over North America and at various fairs and contests, where she garnered several awards.
Corwin used an image of firefighters raising the American flag at the Twin Towers on 9-11 to create a painting using watercolors. She gave it to a firefighter who had recently returned from the area, and made several others for local fire stations.
This cheetah was created with oil paints on jesso board.
These zebras were created using pastel paints on suedeboard.
Phyllis Corwin is a seasoned painter who resides in Washougal with her husband of almost 50 years, Bill. She has been painting and teaching for more than 20 years.
To view her work, visit the Camas Gallery at 408 N.E. Fourth Ave., or www.artbyfariah.net. Corwin can also be reached at 798-1533.
