Becky’s Bio:

Born in West Virginia to a military family, we moved almost every year. Retirement brought parents and siblings to Colorado. I spent time in Nebraska, Iowa, and Arizona before returning to Colorado in 1985. Taking a class from a retired art teacher really helped. It was after I retired a few years ago, I have been able to make art a priority in my life. It makes me very happy.
