Artist - Illustrator - Photographer
R.D. Tieber (née Thompson) is an honor-winning, Missouri-based artist who discovered a love and talent for art in early childhood. She comes from a multi-generational tradition of Midwestern female artists and craftswomen. R.D. is predominantly self-taught, specializing in detailed graphite drawings, oil pastel portraits, and artistic black and white photography.
When she is not working in her studio, you can find R.D. going for a run, planning her next adventure in one of America’s National Parks, dreaming of the next Missouri State Fair, or enjoying time with her family in the beautiful Missouri Ozarks.
