I live in Oregon with my husband and son and a variety of critters. I have been drawing since the first day I smelled
a new box of crayons. My art career has taken many turns, including a stint as a muralist and teaching after school art classes
to enthusiatic grade schoolers.
I am passionate about portrait work (animals and people) and outdoor art. I work in many
mediums, including oil, acrylic, color pencil, and my childhood favorite: crayon!
My favorite place to be is at the coast walking
on the beach. I love to hear rain on a tin roof and love a good thunder and lightning storm.
I am currently
available to do portrait work on commission. If you would like to order prints of my Fantasy work, or if you are wanting
a one-of-a-kind outdoor piece, please contact me at deannehicksart@yahoo.com. I look forward to hearing from you!
