Diane Siers

Fritz Scholder was my most inspirational friend to date. Since his death, I have been studying art to continue to extend his visions, attempting to channel those wonderful moments we had together. For those of you not familiar with him, he was an art icon...just ask him and he would tell you...An emerging artist, I have very recently taken up painting. I've been a special education teacher off and on during my adult years and also a licensed school superintendent. My passion was modern dance in my youth, having studied a generation under Mary Wigman--the world famous modern dancer. I'm taking the inspirational dance classes and moving them into a different medium.

Two M.As. Special Education and Reading Education. Licensed school Superintendent and Supervisor in Arizona. Studied art in Santa Barbara, California with Rick Stitch and John and Larry Iwerks, and in Paradise Valley with Fritz Scholder. I exhibit with the Bisbee artists at the Central School annual art show.
