My Story

---

My name is Liz Hendrix and this is my story:  

I grew up on the East coast loving horses and art. Following my passion for Dressage I became a successful trainer and competitor for 20+ years. Finally, ending up in East Bay San Francisco running my own business, EBHDressage. In  2010 an illness forced me to reevaluate my life’s direction. After developing a facial neuralgia that for 10 years made it painful to be outside for extended periods of time I was forced to slow down my career with the horses. Currently I am feeling much better and have picked up more of my horse career again!

As an equine and animal artist I work hard to breathe life, emotion and personality into each painting or sketch. Using oil paints, pencil or water color pencil, I want to feel what that animal is feeling. I currently live in Rocklin California with my husband, daughter, 3 dogs, 5 chickens,  a lizard  and  a  bunch  of  fish  tanks. I still ride and teach a handful of people and split my time writing, illustrating, portrait making and art.
