Dinah McCloud 

Dinah began sketching animals from encyclopedias and dictionaries in grade school.  Her teachers encouraged her to keep drawing and sketching by hanging her art work in the school halls.  While she was still a young girl her mother ordered a zoo book of animals which thrilled Dinah.  Although she drew constantly she didn't begin painting until her high school years while taking art class.  After taking a twenty year break from painting she decided to  take an art class from Lynn Ernest. Dinah regained her passion for painting and hopes that each new piece is better than the last.  Most importantly she gives credit to God, the creator of ALL things, for her talent to paint such realism.
