Alice Williams has been painting since she arrived in Lexington in 1960.  She has studied at the local institutions and also with Hope Laughlin (line drawing), Maxine Foster (watercolors), and Ryan Russell (oils).

Living with a view of House Mountain and the Shenandoah Valley, she has focused on landscapes, but occasionally produces figures and abstracts.  Oil, watercolor, and photography are the media that she uses.

She has won prizes in oils and photography, but her favorite medium is ink with watercolor.  These works are usually abstracts of nature and colors are splashed around ink structures.

Not only has she shown regularly in the Rockbridge area shows, but also in the Bath County Art Show, on the WVPT television auction, and the Rockbridge Arts Guild displays in Richmond.  Alice is a founding member of the Rockbridge Arts Guild and has served in many capacities in that organization, including the position of President of the Guild.
