Through trying times, I’ve found myself coping through art and through creating things that made me happier. Brighter subjects that brought me back to life. Now, through my work I hope to be able to do that for others. I want the viewer to feel the movement, energy, and life coming from the artwork. I want my art to force people to smile again.We all need a little sweetness. A pick-me-up when the world gets too heavy. We can’t be serious all the time. ”— Natasha Wescoat Country: USA Birthyear: 1982 Galleries: 2008 Platinum Paws Boutique, Stoneham, MA 2007 Thinkspace Gallery - Picks of the Harvest: Batch Four, LA 2007 Metaphors Gallery - Arlington Hts, IL 2006 Plein Air 06’ EBSQ online group show 2006 EBSQ Equine Art Show.
