Lani is a native of Colorado now living in Drake, a small town nestled in Big Thompson Canyon just down from Rocky Mountain National Park. Her work is known for simple shapes, values, and burshstrokes, expressing a myriad of subject matter including animals, still lifes, landscapes and figures. Her goal is to evoke an emotional response to a subject reflecting her belief that all things, living and non-living, are equally significant and essential to the whole.
