Known for her vivid, dreamlike drawings and paintings, often featuring faces, nature, and spiritual imagery, Evans began creating art based on her dreams and visions later in life, around age 43.
She worked as a gatekeeper at Airlie Gardens in Wilmington, NC, where much of her artistic inspiration flourished. Her work has been displayed in major institutions, including the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and she is recognized today as one of the most important visionary artists of the 20th century.
