About the Artist

Rena Brouwer is an international award winning watercolorist, instructor and entrepreneur. With a passion for nature, Rena’s paintings reflect the beauty of a captured moment transposed onto paper in her unique contemporary style, one that is recognized worldwide.

Through out her career, her innate artistic gifts have led her to teach at national art conventions, colleges, museums and community venues across the nation.  While her paintings can be found in both public and private collections around the world, Rena’s work is a voice that communicates her deepest values: Preservation of our natural resources, our heritage and the opportunity to educate future generations.  With accolades spanning over five decades, her humbleness, gratitude, and sincerity echo these values.

Today, you’ll find Rena as co-owner and Gallery Directory of the Opera House Gallery of Contemporary Art, located in Delphi, Indiana, where she  exhibits her work.  She is also an Indiana Artisan, member of The Brown County Art Guild, Indiana Artists Club, Hoosier Salon, Indiana Plein Air Painters Association, and a Cardinal Fellow member of the Watercolor Society of Indiana.
