Out Where The West Begins

About Me:

I am an artist who explores the myth, humor, and nostalgia of the Old West through my original paintings, drawings, collage, and digital artwork. I also design and create a handbag line (Buckaroo Bags) and design for a jewelry line (Deb Trotter & Maverick Rose). I also create cards and prints from my work, altered in photoshop. My artwork honors the men and women of the west - cowgirls, cowboys, Native Americans, and pioneers, as well as the wildlife that surrounds them - horses, buffalo, wolves, elk, and bears. I want those who view and purchase my work to be as passionate about the spunky, western spirit of the cowgirl as I am - after all, this spirit lives in all women!
