PERSONAL HISTORY

I was born in Albuquerque and raised in Santa Fe N.M. I live near Lamy N.M. now where I can still ride my horse to the post office. I have traveled in Europe and Africa in 1964-65. Had a ranch in Colorado, where I took care of horses and grazed cattle. Moved back to Santa Fe in the 70’s. Where I worked for five years at the Shidoni Foundry learning all aspects of the bronze casting process. I moved near Lamy in 89’ where I have a horse-boarding stable and work in my studio with my husband who is a hand engraver.
