Artist ProfileDeDi Knox |
 Five Feathers Watercolor |
|
DeDi Knox received her formal education at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, earning a BS in Art Education. She also studied at the Courtauld Institute and the Slade School of Art in London. Dedi has worked long and hard to discover her watercolor style. Her work reflects her belief that life’s experiences carry you deeper into self-discovery only if you are willing to be patient and to risk time and effort. Dedi and her husband, David, have lived in England, Massachusetts, Washington D.C., Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Hahns Peak, Colorado. They have three children. Besides her work as a school teacher, Dedi (and David) have traveled extensively. Each place she has visited has further focused her art. Dedi’s husband, David, raises flowers and vegetables. His landscaping abilities have afforded her many subjects right at hand. Her interest in Native American lore again has taken her in a different direction. Her love of formal landscapes has encouraged her to experiment further with abstract shape and design and to see as she has never seen before. Shows and awards include the Flower Show in Milwaukee, Winter Works Art Show in Steamboat Springs, and the Exhibition Abstract Landscape Miniature Show in Door County, Wisconsin. She has had several one woman shows since 1985 . |
