I have been asked many times about the painting process. It is sometimes hard to explain. Here is a fun look at a few of my paintings coming together.

Many times – even being super busy is relaxing when you are painting. Here are some random paintings that don’t always have a purpose.- except to be created.

Dorri Thyden has been involved in art projects for more than 20 years in Washington, D.C., California and Arizona. Inspired by the vibrant colors and larger than life landscapes of the southwest, she likes to create large, bright and vivid paintings with a creative perspective. She focuses on everyday objects or themes and applies a unique spin and massive splash of color. With her background in government, law and politics, Dorri also gravitates towards creating political art that depicts themes related to civic engagement and awareness.
