Nancy never tires of traveling through our beautiful country. She and her husband, Glen, travel the backroads of our states when time
allows, yearning to discover the feel, tastes and traditions of each area.
When not painting or traveling, Nancy loves to garden with her constant canine companion, Calamity Jane (Callie.) Outside her home
and studio are stands of Doug Fir and Oak trees over 200 years old, Christmas tree groves, more than 30 fruit trees, 70 blueberry
bushes, 4 other types of berry rows, 1/3 acre vegetable garden, small pond and flower gardens. There’s even a wildlife zone that has
been landscaped away from the house and barn to attract the critters. Deer, raccoon, possum, coyote, herons, eagles and hawks travel
the area. It is a labor of love. Her husband, Glen, is a full time engineer and shares in the joy of gardening and taking care of
the little "farmstead" on weekends.

Nancy Mink knew as a child that she would someday be an artist. After a few decades as a professional civil engineer, her artistic
dream was launched when asked to provide home and garden magazine illustrations and eventually book illustrations. Soon after, Nancy's
artwork became licensed for a wide range of home decor, fabric collections and paper products.
Using multiple layers of watercolor
washes, each stroke of saturated color from her brush reflects her love for nature and everyday home life. Nancy considers herself
blessed to be a full-time artist in her rural Oregon studio while wildlife outside her window beckons to become the next subject.
