About Me
Born in York PA in 1968, Tammy Winand graduated Dallastown High School in 1986 and briefly studied French and creative writing at West Chester University.
She relocated to central Florida in 1992.
Since 1992 she has lived & worked in central FL; Albuquerque; the Grand Canyon; Grand Teton Nat. Park; Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado; Mt. Rushmore.
She has also lived in Ireland, the UK, & traveled in France.
A 4.5 month tour of India’s Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh states from autumn 2009-spring 2010 resulted in a passion for the region. An extended return visit is planned for late 2010.
Artist’s Statement:
My work focuses on connections: between the past & present, between diverse cultures, between man & nature, even between color & form.
I am strongly influenced by ancient civilizations, sacred spaces, lifestyles of “exotic” lands, & the power of nature to reclaim what man has built.
My goal is to translate my life experience through symbolism which can be interpreted by a broad audience.
