Located in Sheridan, Wyoming, her studio is affectionately called: “The Salon of Brass Tacks and Unruly Elements”. “Salon” honors the history of females hosting intellectual discourse as well as a place for style…of hair. “Brass Tacks” are the bedrock principles of visual art and “Unruly Elements” are the tools the artist must master.
