About the Artist:

Dee Sturgis was raised in Montana.  Her mother took note of her artistic talent and bought her first set of pastels at the age of nine.  From the first “How to Draw Dogs” book to the present time; the biblical principle of study to show yourself approved has been applied.

Being a self – taught artist, over the past 35 years she has developed her skills in portraiture, landscaping and much more.  Her style is realism with a flavor of impressionism.  She works with a variety of mediums, pastels being her first love.  Her works include illustrating children’s books to memory paintings on all kinds of surfaces.  Creating art is a delight to express in giving glory to God.

She has been teaching private and group art classes for the past 28 years.  Dee now resides in Hazlehurst, Georgia with her family and works out of her studio in her home.
