Renee Zeitzer

Studio #19

BIO

Oil painting is Renee’s medium of choice, and she participates in local New Orleans exhibits and fairs. Over the years her artwork has been whimsical, at times incorporating stuffed animals or toys into the composition.  

Beginning her career as an art therapist, Renee has enjoyed incorporating the use of creative self expression in a variety of ways. She assisted both adults and children in portraying their thoughts and feelings in order to help them achieve personal growth. Upon returning to school to study occupational therapy, Renee found it beneficial to incorporate drawing into her work with young students. Through their artwork, students built confidence and improved pencil control as they worked towards strengthening the fine motor skills needed both at home and in the classroom.

Although childhood continues to be a theme explored in some of Renee’s work, she has recently been focused on rendering of the human form in studio as well as zoom drawing groups.
