Butterfly Wing "Sunset" Dress NYFW 2022 (2022) Design by Zita Barbara Sanders

I began drawing when I was three years old. 

Early (Teen) "Chess Drawings:"

I became 2nd place Texas Women's Chess Champion (in a tournament held by the San Antonio Chess Studio) and was ranked around 23rd for women in my age group in my teens. While at chess tournaments, I would draw waiting for the next round to begin. This led me to produce a series of drawings that found themselves in chess books and a short-lived television series about chess. Encouraged by the success of my chess drawings, I began to explore other mediums. While in business school, I started experimenting with painting. It was during this time that I began painting large scale butterfly paintings.

Butterfly Motif (College) Paintings:

I decided to paint butterflies because they represent change. I would look to my own paintings for hope and inspiration to climb whatever obstacles in my path. In my thoughts I carried the notion that my life would change while I painted and that I could inspire hope in others through the message in my paintings. I believe people feel uplifted when viewing my work.
