Growing up, Becki had the woods of Mackinac as her playground for exploring and adventuring. She gathered wildflowers, before she knew them to be endangered and carried them home. Now as a painter, the cottage gardens and natural areas on Mackinac Island provide an exhausting supply of subjects to capture in her unique style. 

​

Her undergraduate studies at California College of the Arts and Crafts were followed by the Botanical Art Program at he Ringling Art School. She spent a winter in Florence, Italy studying realism. 

​

A life-long resident of Mackinac Island, she paints in her studio in the Island. Study sketches are done on location as well as detailed photographs for reference. She paints with magnifying glasses and bright lights to recreate the details that Mother Nature is so fond of.
