Hendren

I attended Duke University as an undergraduate in Business, and worked in the accounting and business world as well as full time raising a family. I was a later returning student to the NCSU Design School and obtained my Masters of Architecture at age 50. I love combining the various skills I have acquired in various fields to attempt to create works of art that communicate and give pleasure.

I love working in oils. I am passionate about the history of oil painting, the way it fills your senses, “the way it smells, the feel and the ingredients.” What inspires me is the incredible richness of art history worldwide, its evolution over time, and the passion and sense of self that artists invest in their work. And the knowledge that she will never reach the end of her artistic journey. I love to travel and have painted scenes from all over the world, or as I like to think, “all places and anywhere stories happen.” I am thrilled to be a part of the Raleigh art community, its energy and the sense that something special is emerging and growing.
