She is represented by The Legacy Gallery in Wyoming and Arizona, as well as The Goodnight Trail Gallery and Broadmoor Gallery in Colorado.
Artist Questions
What artist inspires you? Why?
The late, great master, James Reynolds. His landscape paintings take my breath away. He was a master at beautiful color, amazing values, and incredible brushwork. He also conveyed a mood of mystery that I love.
How do you come up with an idea for a new piece of artwork?
Ideas come to me from everywhere in nature. I am always observing and being inspired by what magic is happening from dawn until dusk.
Where is the most inspirational place you've visited lately?
Seeing all the amazing work in "The Masters of the American West" at the Autry National Center and also at The Los Angeles County Museum of Art in early February was definitely inspiring.
