Tonya Crawford Wall Art

Tonya Crawford was born into an Air Force family, so she was brought up on bases from Puerto Rico to Idaho. He counts herself lucky to have had a mother who always encouraged her creativity - she was always sculpting, painting, or drawing as a child. As Tonya entered the job market, she created opportunities for herself and within a short time she became Assistant Art Director at the age of 24 with a very successful printing company. However, her gusto for a "career" lost steam as a better job presented itself – she became a mother. Soon, jelly sandwiches and peanutbutter with her little boy were tastier than any Power Lunch, and she happily became a stay-at-home mother doing "art jobs" as they presented themselves. Eventually, Tonya picked up a paintbrush and began painting the things she love - patriotic images and country settings.

She marketed those pieces of paintings to several stores in Pennsylvania and Ohio, and soon she was discovered by www.pennylanepublishing.com (Penny Lane Publishing). Her images can now be found on greeting cards, wallpaper, prints, textiles, flags, and many more items. Tonya lives in Tennessee on the beautiful Cumberland Plateau with her husband and hero, Norman. The couple is extremely proud of their 4 very creative and fabulously funny children - Stephen, a comedy writer and an actor; their gorgeous daughter Callan, a talented writer and artist; Ralf, a Motion Graphics and Visual Effects Artist; and their little Christian, who wants to be a Time Lord...or a soldier. He's still undecided at this point.
