Welcome:

Eva Takacs was born and raised in Hungary. She started to draw at an early age, and received private lessons. She continued her training in college before moving to the United States. She won a three-year scholarship to the Minneapolis Art Instruction School sponsored by Life Magazine. As a student she won multiple awards and her paintings were published in Illustration Magazine.

After graduating she worked in a Villa Italia Joslins, Dept. store as a visual merchandise manager. Her in-store designs earned her several awards. During this time Eva also freelanced as a designer and artist for theatrical backdrops and Creative Rentals illustrations for the Siberian Husky Magazine (her other passion)

In retirement she has worked primarily in portraiture and has had her works published in the Encyclopedia of Living Artist. Her specialty is portraits of people with their pets, especially horses and dogs.
