Edda was born and raised in Kingman, AZ, but became a full time resident of Yuma, AZ in 1990 after living in a couple of different places. Edda gets her creative talents from her mother, who was always trying different things in the arts and crafts. Amongst the many things Edda tried/learned are knitting, crocheting, cross-stitching, and working with ceramics. Edda picked up Fluid Art (Pour Painting) and Resin Art in 2019 after watching a few Youtube videos. Edda also likes to learn other forms of arts and crafts from fellow members of Mountain Shadows Art Assoc.
