AliceS Crittenden Art - Alice Scott Crittenden Chalk Artist

Borrowing from the Impressionists and the Expressionists, Alice loves to discover color relationships and the effects on the viewer’s emotions.

My father was my greatest cheerleader and art critic. He was always diligent to encourage talent, yet he was never one to hold back on pointing out area that needed reworking.

My greatest inheritance from him? He instilled in me the truth that each person has been imprinted with a creative force that needs to be communicated. It should not lie dormant. I believe our creativity is part of our life force-it needs to be exercised regularly!

Alice Scott Crittenden's artwork is in private collections in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. Not only has Alice displayed her work in solo shows, but her ceramics, paintings, serigraphs, etchings, and pen and inks have displayed in juried shows as well. Alice has yet to discover an art medium she doesn't enjoy!
Ms. Crittenden worked for 6 years in advertising firms, first as a graphic artist, progressing to Art Director for a Ventura California advertising agency, and on to co-owner of graphic design agency in Oxnard, CA. She retired from the agency when her daughter was born.
Now residing in Santa Barbara, she is currently pursuing her work from her home studio when she is not painting the street in chalk festivals.
