Popular workshop with Naples Art Association led by international artist Hedi Moran

Hedi Moran’s blended style of realism and impressionism gives even still life scenes a sense of vibrance and liveliness. Her florals glisten with sunlit freshness and spontaneity.

Artwork by Hedi Moran, Peonies in a Black Vase, dances with light and color.

Born Åse Pedersen in a Norwegian coastal village, Hedi Moran immigrated to the United States as a child. She began painting in 1973, studying at the Art League of Los Angeles and later at Scottsdale Artists School.
