She started painting at a very early age. Continuing to study in school Nancy received a BA degree in Art Education from The University of Central Arkansas. After marriage, and
completion of Nancy's husbands Phd.in Physics from Auburn graduate school, the couple landed in Huntsville, Alabama.
Nancy continued to paint and grow as an artist while working in interior design, sign painting and freelancing as an artist. After raising a son with the support of her husband and
family Nancy decided to pursue painting full time. Nancy has studied with many of the finest artists in the world today, Quang Ho, Kim English, Ken Auster, Nancy Chaboun,
Karin Jurick, Carol Marine, Anne Blair Brown,
The Cumberland Society Painters, Tim Horn, Kevin Beilfuss, Maggie Siner and Milt Kobayashi, Lisa Daria Kennedy and Gary Bodner.
" My love of portraying people while they go about their daily lives and capturing a small moment in time is what keeps me excited as an artist. Using bold color, lush descriptive
brushstrokes and very often whimsy I set about doing what I love, painting everyday! I have started painting exclusively what I call my "ladies". Inspired by my studies with Milt
Kobayashi, I create whimsical women in everyday settings with exaggerated features such as elongated hands, arms, unusual faces and long lean bodies with a lot of wonderful
color
