I am delighted to share my art with you. I moved to Dunnellon from Southeastern Pennsylvania after retiring as a professional horse trainer with my own farm.
I always have had art in my life. I am inspired by the amazing color of animals, wildlife, and landscapes. As a calligrapher, I learned from one of my teachers in fourth grade and became fascinated with pens, inks, and letters. I have a studio at my home on a beautiful lake. I dedicate most of my day to creating art and to my picture-framing business. You can find me at my website: www.bridgethanleystudio.com, or visit me on Facebook and Instagram. I am grateful for your appreciation of my creations. -- Bridget |
