*AMBOY, CA - FEBRUARY 29: Desert sunflowers begin the annual desert bloom
before sunrise near Amboy Crater National Natural Landmark as a near-normal
rain season follows a near-record dry season that lead to a wave of massive
wildfires across southern California in 2007, on February 29, 2008 near
Amboy, California. Weather experts are saying that it would take years of
above-normal rainfall to refill the shrinking reservoirs of the West and to
recover from a drought that has plagued western states since the end of the
1990s. Very few wildflowers were seen in California deserts in 2007. Amboy
Crater is a symmetrically-shaped cinder cone near Mojave National Preserve
in one of the youngest volcanic fields in the nation. The last eruption
period occurred 500 years ago. (Photo by David McNew/Getty Images)*

Being surrounded by tall pine trees, snowy mountains, lush valleys, clear-water lakes, and diverse wildlife had a lasting impact on her artistic endeavors. “Nature is so majectically beautiful, it is impossible to capture its beauty in a canvas, so, I have dedicated my efforts in recreating the fractions of my exporatory journey and I hope to share those with others.”
