Hello! My name is Dawn Tarr....I am a full time visual artist, currently in Maryland...
i have been super creative since before I knew kindergarten existed... and oddly enough.. born on Van Gogh's birthday.....
Spent my childhood on a giant farm. .. Creating was an obsession since I can remember.
At that time, I had no idea that I would be using the creative flow to make my entire living, make friends, and see the world...
All through my school years, I was the designer of whatever needed.. bulletin boards, yearbooks, posters, murals on the walls of the gym... you name it......
After the school years, I left the Eastern Shore and was accepted into the Columbus College of Art and Design in Columbus Ohio, studying illustration, sculpture, and design.
After College I moved to Chincoteague Virginia, where the wild ponies swim... another really awesome place. I stayed for 5 years, painting murals on restaurant walls, names on the back of fishing boats.. I even painted squid underneath the boats , I learned this is to attract the fish.. hmmm ... I still wonder if that worked ?
It was time for a change. I moved to Cambridge Maryland, and opened a gallery for a short time, many fond memories from there, and friends I love dearly. Met so many creatives who inspire me constantly.
while in Cambridge, I discovered the computer and eBAY.. i have been selling there for nearly 8 years, have met the most awesome people all over the world..
Currently in the Snow Hill area, I am just riding the wave of life and amazed every single day at how far art has taken me in life..and changed the life of others. its been a great adventure.
I love spreading the word of art.. color and passion..
and hopefully when its all said and done, I will be able to continue this life in creating artwork that makes people stop in their tracks, put smiles on faces, and a dance in hearts. My ultimate goal through it all is to be able to mass produce my works in some way, that I can afford to really make a difference in the studies to cure A I D S ,( amfAR ) and CANCER research..as well as continue to bring life back to the Katrina Survivors..BRING BACK NEW ORLEANS!!! so many lives have been touched by all, and as long as I can continue to create, I have a goal.

Seeking - Professional Gallery Representation, Art Publishing.. I own ORIGINAL RIGHTS of images, of many topics including nudes, music, food, florals, still life, fantasy, mermaids, divas, wine, martini, abstractS... Much of them have never been uploaded to my website. Would like to find a publishing company or agent that can handle the amount of artwork that I produce, or have produced... whether it be fashion, decor, books, television, movies, set design, whatever the images could possibly be applied to.
I am a serious artist, not a hobbyist or weekend warrior.. I have survived from my artworks entirely for the last 15 years, supplying gift shops and galleries, and interior designers, online sales, worldwide, with originals and prints .
