    Dian Crystal

    Dian's life long passion is the expression of all those characters and energies that dance through her inner life. As a child, Dian loved to draw and play and sculpt. Faces have been especially intriguing subjects.

    She was born in Salt Lake City, Utah and graduated from the University of Utah with a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry with a plan to teach in High School. She married a Naval Officer and was off to Guam, California and the Philippines. During those wedded years, Dian kept her passion alive with design and painting classes at Monterey Peninsula College and dabbling in home making arts. After a divorce she expressed her creativity as a seamstress, a wax worker in a bronze foundry, and as a psychic hand reader and massage practitioner. In recent years she has devoted most of her time to her painting and sculpture, taking classes in ceramics at Monterey Peninsula College and teaching herself painting in acrylics. She moved to Sonora in 1999.

    Dian says, "As an artist, my goal is to use my inner knowing, senses, fears, hopes, playfulness, and intuition to bring into the light of day our dreams for our life and all aspects of the human experience. I delight in the variety of reactions people have to my art."
