And here’s the featured piece, Interior with Daffodils and Persimmons, for the 2026 Fall Festival of the Arts in DeLand by our Featured Artist, Robert Ross.

Robert Ross is an oil painter based in Winter Park, Florida. His work captures the architectural elements and gritty urban landscapes of the city through a bold, Matisse-inspired color palette, often finding beauty in the negative spaces between buildings. As the 2026 Featured Artist for the Fall Festival of the Arts – DeLand, Ross brings his vibrant energy and unique vision to this year’s official poster, highlighted by his featured still life, "Interior with Daffodils and Persimmons".

The heart of our festival is the artwork. You’ll find original work created by artists in a variety of mediums such as Painting, Glass, Sculpture, Jewelry, Leather, Photography, Printmaking, Wood, Ceramics, Mixed Media, Fiber and more.

The festival is an opportunity for art lovers to meet the artists and to purchase works that will enrich their lives.

The Fall Festival of the Arts DeLand is presented in partnership with the Museum of Art - DeLand and MainStreet DeLand Association. Funding and support services are provided in part by the City of DeLand, County of Volusia, State of Florida Dept. of State and West Volusia Tourism Advertising Authority.
