Wendy is a native of Seattle born in 1951, who lived most of her life in Burbank, California, and has been a resident of Las Vegas since 1989. She is often heard to say, I was born with a paint brush in my hand. Wendy has a love of color and vision that extends well past her canvas. She has never received any formal art training. Aside from painting, she is a photographer, a professional Web Designer, Seo Specialist, and Graphic Artist, who sculpts, is a crafter, lover of family, animals, and beauty. My artwork is my voice. I have as many styles as I have thoughts and I cant seem to fill my paintings with enough intense color. My paintings are captured moments or thoughts in time. I believe the work of an artist should be a window into that artists soul. My paintings expose me and I find it difficult to show them to the world at times. I have not been formally trained. I dont believe art can be taught. You can take a class or learn a technique but will that make you a better artist without altering the talent God has given you? A class can teach you how to use the medium but only God can give you the soul of an artist. Art is like music, some like Opera, some like Rock, some like Country and no explanation is needed. I hope you feel something when you look at these works. I hope you pick up a brush and respond. The world needs more art, more color, and more voices
