Diane grew up in a rural Ohio. She moved to L.A. in her early 20's where she completed a BA in Studio Arts and enjoyed work as a digital artist for video games and film. When the daily painting movement became popular she began blogging small paintings. She enjoyed painting a variety of subject matters including flowers. Many of her flower paintings were published as posters by Limited Editions and later Wild Apple Graphics. When she started painting her beloved cats, her art took a new direction. Diane's cat paintings have been featured in books "Cats in Art" by Desmond Morris and "The Book of the Cat." She is pleased to have had paintings in Modern Cat Magazine, The Artist's Magazine, Southwest Art and International Artist. More recently, "Your Cat Magazine" featured her art in the June/2019 issue.

She resides in Kirtland, Ohio with her husband and muse-extraordinaire, Coco the cat.
