What People are Saying…

Dori always works very hard to really understand what we’re looking for in pieces from both her collection and from commissioned work. At some point every room in our house will have a painting by her.

Growing up I had the privilege of watching Dori create beautiful artwork when I would stay with my best friend. I was always in awe of Dori’s “art room” in her house. She had her paintings displayed all over the walls, and her daughter and I would sit in there and talk about all the beauty she captured in her work. She had amazing talent right from the start. Through the years, I have been blessed with many of her watercolor masterpieces, that I display proudly throughout my home. In 2021 my family lost a wonderful woman; I knew I needed to commemorate her somehow. What better way than with a one-of-a-kind Dori Beth original piece of art?!
My husband and I commissioned Dori to do a portrait of his mother. When she was finished, she sent us a photo of the painting to get our feedback. To say we were at a loss for words would be an understatement. We were completely in love with Dori’s creation of our beloved Mother! We proudly hung it in our home office so we can see it every day! We’ve also purchased a few of her original pieces to display in our office and throughout our home! Dori has an innate ability to bring beauty to life through her paintings! She will forever be our most favorite artist, and we are so proud of all she has accomplished.

I had the great pleasure of assisting Dori Beth Josimovich in her watercolor teachings for an amazing trip in the fall of 2023 to Italy, Tuscany. This experience as a whole was great! Seeing all the European elements come to life in her teachings was by far the best part!
Dori’s watercolor teachings were grounded, fun and for all skill levels. Every student produced great art works and grew as an artist.
Her work captures the essence and warmth that Tuscany is smothered in! She brings the light to life in her watercolors. I would recommend joining Dori in any setting she offers her art works in.

If anyone is looking for an artist, I recommend Dori. Her paintings make the subject come alive. She did a painting from a picture of my beloved dog. Not only did the painting look exactly like the picture but it captured the soul of my baby. I have several paintings by Dori of different subjects and I treasure them all.

I have a degree in Art and I’ve taken several other painting classes, over the years. Never in all this time have I had a teacher that went into so much detail to teach the techniques of painting, as Dori does. She is very patient to help and encourage all of her students. We all have a great time in her class.

Dori Beth is a joy! Her fun loving way of guiding every level of student through the painting process is both accessible and therapeutic. In every class we students have been happily surprised with our final paintings. We’ve had many happy “ah ha!” moments.

I joined Dori’s class as a beginner watercolor artist. She is kind, patient and takes her students step by step with a painting. She did a beautiful commission for me, of my daughter’s wedding. It is absolutely amazing and a wonderful gift to give them.
