A “Southern California transplant,” Sabina Bye is active in the Carson Valley Art Association, the Nevada Artists Association and the Tahoe Art League. Her work is frequently exhibited at the Brewery Arts Center Gallery in Carson City and at Western Nevada College on Buckeye in Minden.
Sabina began painting landscapes and seascapes in oil over 30 years ago, and only dabbled at watercolor and pastel. It was not until she retired and moved to Minden, Nevada that she got serious with pastels and was encouraged by winning several awards in the medium. She loves doing miniature landscapes of local scenes and especially enjoys painting portraits.
Sabina and her husband, Al, are both Orange County, California retirees and enjoy living in Carson Valley. “We love it here because Northern Nevada offers so much in the way of community, arts and never-ending sources of subject matter.”
