STAR LIANA YORK

Art Brokerage: Artist and sculptor Star Liana York (b. 1952) grew up in Maryland, daughter of a professional ballerina and a talented woodworker. Always displaying a strong affinity for animals as a child, Star Liana York purchased her first horse as a teenager and began competing in speed events and rodeos. York operated a horse boarding and training business through college (graduating from the University of Maryland in Studio Art) but always dreamed of coming out West. This dream was realized about 20 years ago when York located a casting facility in Santa Fe, New Mexico, moved there and has used the foundry ever since.
