Thurow has painted for over forty years. She is an award-winning artist who has participated in numerous solo, group, national, regional and local exhibitions.

Watercolor and drawing are her primary media. Recently she plays with acrylic and collage.

​

Located in Sheridan, Wyoming, her studio is affectionately called: “The Salon of Brass Tacks and Unruly Elements”. “Salon” honors the history of females hosting intellectual discourse as well as a place for style…of hair. “Brass Tacks” are the bedrock principles of visual art and “Unruly Elements” are the tools the artist must master.
