Born
in a small farming community in Northern Minnesota, Ms. Veblen lived
her early childhood close to the land and surrounded with the practical
and wholesome qualities of rural American life. Those years were
lived in a constant state of flux, traveling between a quiet atmasphere
and the upbeat pace of California for many years in succession.
This circumstance gavbe her perspective and citizenship in a greater
world than many of us experience. Extensive travel in Europe, living
in New York, Australia and now in Northern California provided additional
experience that has made it possible for this artist to achieve
the variety, depth and understanding of the arts she now pursues.
Ms.

to communicate
was born out of a personal need to be in touch with her fellowman
and realize a common bond. She is aided by an eye attentive to detail
that will not distract from her purposes. Sensitive care for craftsmanship
and form guarantees the shared hands-on delight of sliding one's
fingers over the smooth, flowing lines and textures.

of this era, and with her creative gift manages to impart a warmth
and vitalit to the cold metal. The result is the truly classic quality
of her subjects.
