Title is Lonesome Blues. 10" by 14" unframed. 16" by 20" framed. Pastel on Paper. Daphne was raised in rural North Dakota, near the Montana border, where she spent much of her adolescence at her grandparent’s ranch; chasing cows, building fences, milking cows and helping check for spring calves. Daphne received a bachelor’s degree in biology from Minot State University in 2003 and has worked as an Environmental Health Practitioner striving to protect the area where she was raised from the impacts of rapid growth due to oil production. Over the years, Daphne has watched the ranching life in North Dakota and Montana disappear, giving way to an oil-based economy. In 2010, Daphne was inspired to start painting when a friend introduced her to oil paint as a medium. She discovered she could easily spend hours mixing colors and manipulating paint on the canvas with different brushes, strokes and the pallet knife. The fluidity and versatility of this new medium had her hooked, yet Daphne craved feedback to further her skill set. In 2012, Daphne enrolled at the Academy of Art University to pursue a Master’s in Fine Art. Like the ranchers she depicts, Daphne believes in hard work. She selected AAU because of their philosophy anyone can create art if they are willing to put in the work. It was a natural fit to bring together her background and love for ranching and the outdoors into her paintings. Daphne believes there is a story in these rural areas just waiting to be told to the rest of the world and she wants to tell that story.
