Liberty Dickinson, a Chicago native, has had a love for drawing and painting as long as she can remember. As a youth, she was always duplicating cartoons, using her brother as a model while he slept, or creating her own pictures. She had a love for teaching as well and chose to become an elementary school teacher in the Chicagoland area. But the love of art never left her and she has since earned certificates in Illustration and Graphic Design. Fine art, particularly portrait and figure drawing remain her favorite subjects. She continually hones her skills by studying under talented instructors, such as Fealing Lin, Barbara Nechis, Marshall Vandruff, Marc Whitney and Ignat Ignatov. She has exhibited at Irvine Fine Arts Gallery, Anaheim Museum and others. She currently provides emerging and established artists an opportunity to display and sell their work at her gallery, Liberty Fine Arts, at the Santiago Art District in Santa Ana, Ca. She also exhibits her own work, which includes painting in various mediums and sculpture.
