Growing up in rural Texas, Diane Maxey had little access to art, though she was strongly drawn to it from her earliest days. Enrolling at North Texas State University in art and finding herself well behind graduates of big city schools, she chose to
major in art education.
When her toddler daughter tried to drink turpentine, ever vigilant Diane Maxey turned to watercolor and has never gone back to oils. In nearby Arlington, famed watercolorist Al Brouillette, was teaching a night class. Maxey enrolled in his class and continued taking it for several years. She has enriched her studies since then with watercolorists like Robert E. Wood, Milford Zornes and Dick Phillips.
Today, Diane Maxey lives with her husband, Bill, in Paradise Valley, AZ, where she paints daily and continues to explore the byways of watercolor. She is a signature member of the Southwestern Watercolor Association, the Arizona Watercolor Association, the Texas Watercolor Society and an associate of the American Watercolor Society. Her work is exhibited in galleries across Arizona.
Diane Maxey teaches her innovative watercolor techniques in classes and workshops at the Scottsdale Artist's School, conducts workshops across the US and has taken workshop groups to Spain, Italy, Greece and France.
Her work is well represented in a number of publications, including Splash 5, Best of Watercolor II, Freshen Your Paintings with New Ideas, Fresh Flowers - The Best of Flower Paintings. She has also written articles for a number of artists' magazines, the latest of which is in Watercolor Magic, Spring 2000.
