Nancy’s appreciation of nature, and love of horses and other animals began in her early childhood. She loved watching the animals interact with each other, as she rode through the pastures. The seasonal beauty of the pastures and surrounding mountains made a lasting impression on Nancy. This is what she has tried to capture in her drawings. Nancy’s oil paintings feature horses, dogs, and rural landscapes.
