| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
At one time, I wanted to be an international artist. I've traded that dream and vision to be a best selling author. If you are interested in any of my art, I have sold out, but I can make an 8.5 x 11 print on quality paper for $20 plus $1.80 shipping. |

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I started drawing when I almost turned three. I drew horses at that time. I have some paintings available from that era I need to upload and sell prints as all of them are sold. I will be doing my own photoshop in December when I get some money from my retirement COLA. I know I have to increase the dpi on some of them to print them large enough to frame. If you are interested in any of my art, please contact me, Dee Jordan, at deelightfulvisionsllc@mediacombb.net

| Your Personal Biography |
I grew up in a small town in Alabama. At age three, I could draw a horse and by the age of 12 I was doing photo realistic horses. I loved them dearly, especially the Lipizzan (White stallions of the Spanish Riding School) Since the age of seven, I wanted to own one, breed them, and one day got to Austria and see them perform. One by one, my dreams were met.While at Ringling School of Art, I met Col. Hermman and saw my first live Lipizzans back in 1969. I bought my first one, a filly, back in 1973. I took my family to Austria in 1997. My passion for horses was replaced in the late 90's by a passion for nudes and florals. Today, my passion for painting has been replaced with my passion for writing. I made my living as an artist back in the 70's and again in the early 21st century. In 2003 I gave up my art to become a writer. I have shown in galleries all across the South. I've been features with a one woman show in an art museum. I've won numerous awards whenever I competed. I've even been stolen on an International scale. I packed up all of my art supplies and moved from my wonderful studio to a small home in Mobile.(after my 20 year marriage came to an end) I sold my art supplies except for my drawing supplies. Today, I create digital photography for my visual art with some drawing. Painting is gone forever. I closed one chapter in my life and started writing a new one and today I am very happy. I now have my first book published, In and Out of Madness under the pen name of N. L. Snowden |
