Lona has lived her entire life on the banks of the Snake River in Southern Idaho, where she spent the greater part of her life on, or under water. She is primarily self taught and because of her inquisitive nature, she has experimented with many different media to incorporate in the process of her woodcarving.
Not only has she done most of her research and studies independently but has worked with such artists as friend and mentor, Floyd Scholz who is universally recognized as the most famous raptor carver in the world.
Throughout her career, Lona has received many awards, both nationally and in the Ward World Championship. She`s been carving professionally for 15 years now, and is represented in private collections as well as national museums and galleries throughout the U.S. and Canada, including The Kneeland Gallery of Sun Valley, Idaho; Horizon Gallery of Jackson, Wyoming; The Mountain Art Gathering in Keystone, Colorado; The National Hummingbird Society in Sedona, Arizona; the Bronx Zoo in New York; and The University of Tulsa Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
