Taylor Manoles

Taylor Manoles landscape paintings are rich in color and texture and explore themes of faith and the human experience. They are “an invitation into the present moment, a gentle refuge for the longing spirit.”

Born in Arizona and later raised in Minnesota, Taylor has inhabited many different types of landscapes. Her love of the outdoors and desire to paint drove her to pursue an art education degree at North Dakota State University in Fargo, North Dakota. After teaching middle school art for one year, she decided to pursue her own artwork full time. 

Taylor’s work has appeared in various publications including Artists & Illustrators and has been on the cover of Southwest Art Magazine. Her work has gained a committed following in the Pacific Northwest with various shows, and she has become widely known through her online platforms. In 2023, her piece Painted Hills won the Curator’s Choice Award at the High Desert Museum’s annual invitational exhibit, Art in the West.
