Marti Miller Hubbell’s paintings literally illustrate her life
and her California heritage. She lives on the ranch near Hollister,
California, where her husband, John, was raised, and where they base
their stocker cattle operation. Marti was raised on a cattle ranch
in southern San Benito County that her great-grandfather homesteaded
in 1882, which is still operated today by her parents and her
brother.
Marti, a self-taught artist, had to “postpone” pursuing her desire
for a career in art while she raised a family and worked full time
as a legal secretary. After 30+ years in law offices, she recently
was able to “retire” and pursue her dream of capturing the western
lifestyle of yesterday and today in her artwork. In addition to her
art, Marti now has the time to help her husband in their day-to-day
ranching operation, which is an ongoing source of inspiration for
chronicling the western lifestyle.
An award-winning artist, Marti prefers to work in colored pencil and
oils, but she occasionally uses graphite or acrylics. She has a
personal connection with her subjects as they are typically her
family, friends, and neighbors, in situations she has experienced
first hand.
