For
Diana Foster, life is a picture. And she knows, down to her very core, that every picture has a story. So she sees stories
everywhere she goes, and takes great pleasure in greeting others (through her art and her sassy self) with snapshots of beauty,
and on a really good day, wisdom.
She has been expressing herself through art since birth, (you should see her
Self-portrait in Diaper!) She has been a teacher and mother for most of her adult life, and she is ridiculously competent—she
can cut, double-stick tape, or photograph her way out any problem, and into your heart. Not only is she a published artist,
card maker, and photographer, but she has a passion and knack for making everything—every thing—beautiful.
