Interests and Personality

BiographyI have been doing art since I was eleven. I studied art in CA & received my Assoc in Art from Fullerton Comm College in 1986. I moved to Idaho with my husband in 1991. Today I have my own business, Chick Artistic Creations, as a freelance artist and art teacher. I work primarily with colored pencil and turpenoid, but sometimes use other media as well. In 2007 I had the honor of being published in a book for the first time. A pastel portrait I did of the late Princess Diana was published in a coffee table book called "Diana in Art." This book can be ordered through Barnes & Noble & Borders. I am represented by the Sawtooth Artisan's Gift Shop in Stanley, the Vine Arts Gallery in Boise, Frame Works Gallery in Boise & Eagle, and the Gallery at Hyde Park. My website: www.chickartisticcreations.com. Blog website: www.boiseidahoartist.blogspot.com.

FilmsI am crazy about movies! Favorites are Lord of The Rings (trilogy), Gone With The Wind, Titanic, & Ben Hur. I also love Science Fiction movies and Golden Age of Hollywood Films from 40s & 50s.
