Artist Statement

Painting is – regardless of subject – an emotional and physical response to the world. I paint what excites me and that is most often dogs or cloudscapes. My process is an alla prima pouring out of paint and silenced emotions. Their escape onto the canvas informs my style, my voice. Whether painting colorful land and skyscapes, dogs or abstracts, it is from line and gesture I derive great satisfaction and for that reason I prefer to paint large and loose without regard for the details of realism. My hope is to thereby convey my energy and joy to the viewer.

Artist Bio


Sonya Diimmler

artist Sonya Diimmler

Sonya Diimmler is known locally for her dramatic use of color, whether painting South Carolina landscapes or her favorite subject and muse, her bulldog Smedley.


Sonya’s lake and Lowcountry work regularly adorns the windows at High Noon (at the corner of Highway 6 and Dutch Fork Road) where it can be purchased. Her figurative work is prominently and permanently on display at Chapin Veterinary Hospital (500 Columbia Ave). Ten, four-foot square dog and cat portraits, as well as her “Ship of Drools” sailboat from Crooked Creek Art League’s wildly popular Sailboat project from 2019 are at the site as well.
