Rebecca N. King
Rebecca N King studied drawing, oil, and fresco painting with the Nation’s preeminent draftsman and fresco painter Benjamin Long IV in North Carolina at the end of the Twentieth Century. Building on budding talent, a determined work ethic and a dedication to a life time endeavor of excellence in the arts, King works in a private studio in downtown Asheville, North Carolina and regularly travels across the world to paint and study the world’s greatest masterpieces. In collaboration with Long and other North Carolina artists, King helped start the Fine Arts League of the Carolinas, a school dedicated to preserving the artistic tradition, where she continues to share her love for art with others.
Of King’s work, Master Artist and Fresco Painter Benjamin Long said, “Rebecca’s fine talent has light, and truly felt electricity…” King’s oil paintings capture the emotive quality of her subjects, sometimes peaceful, sometimes dynamic, with fluid brushwork and a sensitivity to color relationships.
