WAOW Artistry of the West
The WAOW Artistry is slowly being built to provide a page on our site to promote each artist. This project began late summer 2024. We have over 300 members to load here on their pages. You can search by name, location or by subject matter to find an artist.

My favorite shoes are hiking boots.
For years I've explored the wildernesses of the Southwest, hiking, backpacking, hang gliding and mountain biking - interacting with our wild places up close and in person. This has profoundly influenced my work. I believe we are incomplete without a connection to, and appreciation of, the natural world, and that we should cherish and protect it.
Julie Frothingham . Kansas . waow
It was on the prairies of Minnesota that I learned to observe and listen. The song “Country Sunshine” says it nicely. I am forever a child of God; a student of life.
I believe everyone is an artist. Art is life. We can't help but share life all around us daily. We each have a gift and a personal choice as to how we express it, feel it, use it, and thus, live it.

I don’t know which I loved more as a child, my art supplies, or my stick horses. I blame television’s Roy Rogers and Trigger for the horse obsession.
Margaret Drake . Texas
Margaret strives for accuracy as well as aesthetics when creating realistic figures of animals and humans. Originally from Northwestern Colorado ranching country, Margaret first learned she had a propensity for sculpting after she retired from working 30 years in research in the pharmaceutical industry.

“Light Falling across an object, tree, beloved pet. . . .
The broken color and textures created with pastels and oils. . . .
These are the things that excite me, and call me to paint them. I hope they excite you too.” Addren Doss
Amy Evans . Colorado
“It is the seeking of the soul that inspires me to create. The connection with the incredible beauty and calm of nature is what my collectors say they love in my paintings. While painting I move from observing the light as it defines an object into a place that eludes time and space. This is when I feel a connection to our Creation because the scene I am capturing is filled with such beauty it makes my soul sing. When a collector expresses what I emotionally felt while creating the painting I know I have succeeded. “- Amy Evans
