Biography:
As a native of Western Pennsylvania, Diane Jorstad currently lives in Butler County, one hour North of Pittsburgh. It was moving from the Pittsburgh area, where Jorstad worked as a Registered Nurse, to the beautiful farm county area of Butler, that stimulated her to pursue her interest in art, painting her garden flowers and countryside landscapes. After taking local college art classes, Jorstad found herself winning Best of Show awards and other prestigious awards in the Western Pennsylvania area art shows, prompting requests from local stores, wanting to sell her artwork in their stores.

A few of the many galleries where Jorstad has sold artwork are Blackwood Gallery, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Art 3 Gallery, Manchester, New Hampshire, Laurel Tree and Associated Artists of Butler County Gallery, Butler, Pennsylvania, and From the Heart, Somerset, Pennsylvania. She has been hired by Butler Community College and Lenape Vocation Technical School to teach Adult Education Art Classes.

Jorstad’s many commission sales have enabled her to paint a variety of subject matter and use different mediums. She has painted custom portraits of children, adults, homes and the family pet portrait for private clients. Her gallery art includes landscape, floral and still life artwork medium oil paintings, as well as colored pencil artworks. The attention to detail and the traditional realistic approach to her artwork is what gives freelance artist Jorstad's art it's fine art beauty.
