Meet Nina Buckley!

Nina is an artist living and painting in White Salmon, WA with her wonderful husband John. For the most part, Nina is self taught and finds inspiration not only from the Columbia River Gorge, but also from frequent trips to the ocean. Nina is particularly fond of the Long Beach Peninsula in Washington for its vast stretches of beach and unspoiled bay. Many of her pieces have been born in this area.

Born in Cape Town, South Africa, Nina has now lived in the USA for over 40 years. “Finding the Gorge was finding my tribe, and I can’t imagine living anywhere else!” says Nina.

Stop by or just walk by Nina’s studio on East Jewett to see her at work. If Nina isn’t painting by the window, you are able to view her latest works of art!
