About the Artist:
Renata Villemaire
Renata Villemaire was born in Russia and has loved painting and drawing as long as she can remember. She went to art school for 4 years and also has a bachelor’s degree in business administration. Currently living in Spring Hill, Florida, Renata is an established professional artist, creating major projects within our community as a mobile muralist for the Hernando County Arts Council, a featured artist in the Uptown Gallery, an art teacher for all ages, as well as commissioning portraits of people and animals. She has also tackled some large-scale murals on community buildings; her most recent works can been seen at the library in downtown Brooksville, and another at Neptune’s Grotto in Weeki Wachee.
