Dorothy

...is 70 years old.
Can you believe it.
My how time fly's.

Today, if Dorothy were to encounter
men with no brains, no hearts,
and no Courage or confidence.,

she wouldn't be in Oz.

She'd be in Congress!
Thought You might get a chuckle out of this.

Yvonne started painting and drawing in High School in Houston Texas. She earned extra money drawing insects in science class for classmates.

A trip to Paris, and a stay in Monmarte where she spent time with a few choice artist's changed her views toward her own art work.
Art is truly an expression of experience and love to her.
She likes her work to show a moment in time or tell a story.
