Welcome to Wendy's World
Some people find their special place in life and the job
for which they are best suited more easily than others.
Many people spend their lives doing things they don't
enjoy, things that leave them unfulfilled. What a
blessing it is to discover one's niche in life at an early
age.
Raised a city girl in Chattanooga, Wendy was always
interested in art and horses. She graduated from
Brainerd High School with honors. The University of
Tennessee with a degree in Commercial Art, and was
the only one in her graduating class to have an art
position upon graduation. It was her interest with horses
and art that opened doors for her. She served as art
director for The Voice of the Tennessee
Walking Horse magazine. Her first published art work
appeared on the cover of that magazine.
Wendy moved to Bean Station in the 70's, were she
continued to draw, adding historical buildings to her
portfolio. She has more than 60 published calendars to

She served as Executive Director of the Arts Council
