Lois Griffel cannot remember a time when she was not involved with painting. She studied extensively at the Art Students League of New York and the National Academy Museum and School with E. Raymond Kinstler and Harvey Dinnerstein prior to joining Henry Hensche at The Cape Cod School of Art. In 1985 she became the third director of the school, which was founded by Charles Webster Hawthorne in 1899 and renowned for its dedication to American Impressionism. Griffel has taught painting workshops throughout the US and Europe and has had many sold-out exhibitions in New England. The recipient of numerous awards, her book Painting The Impressionist Landscape is considered the exemplary source on seeing color and light. She lives in Arizona and adores the landscape, the light, and most especially, the people. She returns to New England and Cape Cod every year to paint and believes she has the best of both worlds. Her personal mission is to share her love of color with future students and collectors.
