Dee James is the President of the Cheyenne Artists Guild, Sadly her term is up January 2013. She enjoys painting in pastel, oil, acrylic, and watercolor. She is a self taught artists, ex-salon owner, and hair stylist. Here is a bit more about Dee in her own words:

" Hello, My name is Dee James, I am a fine arts artist living and working from my studio in Cheyenne. I work in a variety of mediums including oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastels, charcoal, and pencil. I have lived in Wyoming since I was two years old. I grew up in Thermopolis and Riverton, Wyoming where my love for art began. At an early age I began drawing, and I am a self taught artist. I began selling my art work at craft shows in the Tri-State area in 2004. My work was well accepted, and has sold to customers from all over the world. Inspired by my beautiful Wyoming surrounding I paint the environment in bold and brilliant colors. I have traveled the state seeking out old towns and wild open places to capture in my paintings. Many of these paintings hang in business and Doctors offices in Cheyenne. I also have a love of the abstract and expressing emotion in my paintings. This genre has produced some of my most beautiful and haunting piece of art work."
