"I like to paint people! It's a magical process to see their images come to life on canvas. I work in watercolor, oil and acrylic - each medium has it's own special feel.

"I love to paint anything with a face - animal or human. I welcome commissions, live or from photos."

Rae and her husband Merv provide the venue for Art in the Bitterroot - July Workshops.
