Diana Rell Dean returned to her birthplace in Tensaw, AL from south Florida just a few years ago. She has been an artist all her life, starting with an extensive dance career which began professionally in 1976 and took place in Minneapolis and New York City. She was a choreographer, teacher and performer of Modern Dance in the Wigman and Hawkins traditions.
Diana began to paint and developed a career in Stuart, FL where she opened a new studio on the upper St. Lucie River, which she named, “Riverhouse Workshop.” The Riverhouse Workshop is now located on 150 acres in the upper Mobile-Tensaw River Delta in Tensaw, AL.
Since her return, Diana has developed a studio, offering classes and lecture/ demonstrations, as well as a Gallery where shows and sales are held and a Lodge, for classes, luncheons, meetings, and retreats.
The Riverhouse is proud to have a team of experienced and passionate instructors who are dedicated to helping our students grow as artists through art workshops. Our instructors have a wide range of specialties, from painting and drawing to ceramics to photography.
The possibilities at Riverhouse are truly endless!
