Dandi

I was inspired to paint Dandi while thinking about a dear friend of mine.

Have you ever realized the resiliance of the dandelion?

Entire industries have been established to remove this plant but its resiliance and ability to grow in adverse conditions could be an inspiration for anyone who has been treated like a weed but grows anyways.

My 20 year professional career in Graphic Design has included many Logo Designs, experience in Print Media, Web Design, and Book Illustrations with a wide variety of artistic styles.

Here is a photo of me (many years ago) and my American Quarter Horse with a real Rocking Horse Costume that my dad and I made for a project at our local 4-H county fair. Read more at www.phelpsllc.com

I have loved horses since my first pony at 3 years old. I was encouraged by my family to become involved in the 4-H horse project as an exhibitor and then as a High School Equestrian Team Coach. Horses are the subjects of much of my art but I also enjoy painting many other subjects.
