Spencer has always been an artist, exploring different mediums and ways to express herself since early childhood. Whether it was braiding grass and making mudpies or drawing in her sketchbook and designing paper outfits, Spencer was always doing something creative. Spencer was inspired by her sisters drawings and would copy them in her own sketchbook. She also loved to practice drawing her family members, usually using photos as reference, but sometimes attempting to draw them from life.

Spencer took a few creative electives in high school, but it wasn’t until after her first child was born in her early 20’s when she took her first oil painting class at a local community college. It was during this beginner class when she curated her first art show in attempt to raise money for lupus awareness. In 2017, Spencer took a beginning watercolor class, which rewarded her a first-place award in a student art show and propelled her into the gallery world.

Although Sencer took two beginning art classes in college, she believes herself to be primarily self-taught, learning mostly by practice and self-discipline. Her favorite painting medium is oil but often works in mixed media. Her paintings can sometimes include up to 5 different mediums to complete a piece.

She began sharing and selling her work online since 2018 and in 2021, Spencer received her first online publication in San Franciscos oldest literary and art magazine, Reed Magazine. Since them she has been published 5 times, including online and in print.

Spencer’s work has been seen in multiple group exhibitions across the US, showing paintings in Utah, California, Nevada, and Texas. Last year, in 2024, Spencer completed her first Solo Exhibition in Temple, Tx which was Titled “Through A Mother’s Eyes, Treasured Moments In Time”.

Currently, Spencer is building a new body of work, inspired by the mundane moments of life and raising her children. She is preparing for her next solo exhibition which will be this summer, 2025. Spencer continues to work in portraiture and figurative subject matter that is inspired by everyday life as a mother and woman; her work is expressive and impressionistic, utilizing color, light, and texture to bring her stories to life.
