Biography

 
 

 

  Garnie Quick has been learning the medium of watercolor for over 20 years. She became enamored when she attended a watercolor workshop at Ghost Ranch, New Mexico in 1984.

Since then she has studied with many well known artists both here and abroad. Her travels have taken her to New Mexico, California, Mexico, Italy, France, Ireland and the Caribbean. Her paintings reflect her impression of all that she has experienced.
