Cazenovia, NY


Blessed with a childhood in a picturesque village in upstate New York, the artist faced early challenges when contracting polio at just 5 weeks old. Despite the obstacles, the desire to experience all life had to offer was strong, leading to adventures like raising a flock of sheep. The process of sheering, carding, spinning, and knitting their wool into cozy sweaters and gloves brought both joy and occasional chaos, especially when dealing with the mischievous ram, Lamb Chops.

As time passed and mobility became more limited, tending to the flock became impossible, prompting a shift towards a new creative outlet. Embracing digital art, the artist found a way to express their story and memories through intricate pieces consisting of hundreds of layers. Each composition blends painting, drawing, and photography, resulting in unique and captivating images that speak to the soul.

Initially creating art for personal fulfillment, the artist's work began to resonate with family and friends, spreading joy and inspiration. Now known as Just Four Ewe, the collection embodies the artist's determination to overcome physical limitations and live through the beauty of their creations. For those seeking to bring a touch of this unique vision into their homes or offices, prints are available for purchase, offering a daily reminder of resilience and creativity.
