About the Artist
Sometimes we have two major interests, one we pursue for a living and one we pursue for our soul. That was the case for Tanya Lown, who spent her career in education: in banking as a program development officer and division training manager, as a teaching associate while pursuing her Ph.D. in French, and as a high school teacher and department manager. Little did she realize at the time, that the creativity required to develop learning materials would translate to creating art. Once retired, she excitedly returned to her childhood interest in art and silversmithing. Tanya feels so fortunate to have found a rewarding second career. She fell in love with manipulating silver into beautiful wearable art and has worked to continually perfect her craft. Tanya has received almost as many honors for her work in silver as she did as a teacher and creator of training programs. In addition to many First Place awards and Best in Class, she has also found recognition in a variety of publications. Her range of her work can be seen at the Leaping Lizard Gallery in Tucson, the Cactus Wren Gallery in Tubac, and the Freebird Shoppe in Catalina.- https://www.tanyalowndesigns.com
