About The Artwork
“Valley girls” don’t come only from California. This valley girl is from the Omo Valley in northeastern Africa (mainly Ethiopia) and is of the Suri tribe. The young girls of this tribe paint themselves with white clay paint in very decorative patterns and utilize the local flora and fauna, as well as “found items” (such as bottle caps) to adorn themselves, often with quite a spectacular and beautiful result. [Artist’s Note: On the original painting, some of the “twigs” and embellishments on the girl’s head extend beyond the borders of the canvas. For the version shown here suitable for prints, I have digitally extended the canvas so that the embellishments can be seen in their entirety. See additional photo for 3-dimensional version, as the original would appear in person.]

~ My paintings have been published in 6 books: ~ "Winter 2015 Art Auction" by Shan Peck ~ "Spring 2016 Art Auction" by Shan Peck ~ "Arts Sports Politics Science--Portraits of Famous People" by Shan Peck ~ "Africa" by Shan Peck ~ "Children's Illustrations" by Shan Peck ~ "196+1 Artwork" by Shan Peck All available on Amazon.com; I also served as Shan's editor on 3 of the books. ~ I was born and raised in the Midwest in the mid-1940’s, graduated from the University of Wisconsin with a B.A. in Theater (concentrations in musical theatre performance and costume design), then moved to Los Angeles in 1976 where I lived most of my adult life. At age 40, while working full-time at night and raising a son by myself, I returned to school and earned a Professional Certificate–Summa Cum Laude in Fashion Design; one of my designs won second place in the 1987 "Suit of the Future" national design contest. ~ In 2014, at age 68, I turned my creative focus from acting, singing and dancing to drawing & painting. I often create dimension in my art with fabric, apparel trim, feathers, jewelry, Swarovski rhinestones & beads, and paper collage. My style is realistic yet often whimsical and I hope my sense of humor comes through in my work because . . . well, because life is just . . . FUNNY!
