The natural beauty that surrounded her on her grandmother's farm has influenced the size, scope, and subject matter ever since. Her emotions dictate what she will paint. She might paint a landscape, an abstract, or she might even be inspired by a simple flower bloom.

Clyde Henry - is an awarding winning architect, writer and artist from Orient, OH. His work is heavily influenced by the years he studied under the renowned architect Masao Kinoshita (木下 正夫) who taught him the qualities of Japanese harmony, balance, and restraint. His work is also influenced by his childhood in Minnesota, and his early career establishing an art curriculum at Centro Educacional de Bonao, in the Dominican Republic in the early 1970s. He embraces both the optimistic colors of the Caribbean and the bright whites and deep blacks of Northern winters, often combining the two.
