Pebbles Wadsworth
Pebbles Wadsworth began painting as a young child and has remained, at her core, a deeply visual person. Art has been the throughline of her life—both as a creator and as a champion of the arts in her community.
Her professional career was rooted in arts leadership. At just 27, she became Director of the UCLA Center for the Performing Arts—an unusually young age for such a role—and was later recruited to help build the Performing Arts Center at The University of Texas at Austin. These formative years shaped her lifelong commitment to creativity, collaboration, and access to the arts.
After retiring, Pebbles spent a year traveling the world before settling in Smithville, Texas, where she moved a historic Victorian landmark house to her horse farm and founded The Arts Cottage. The space quickly became a creative hub for the surrounding community, reflecting her belief that art flourishes when it is shared.
Today, Pebbles divides her time between Wimberley, Texas, and Jamestown, Rhode Island, with her husband, Chris, and their two rescued standard poodles—one of whom is a certified therapy dog. She devotes much of her studio time to painting people’s beloved pets, using her work to help raise funds for families who cannot afford veterinary care. She also remains actively involved in therapy dog work alongside her remarkable companion, Inky.
Pebbles’s life and work continues to reflect a deep generosity of spirit, a love of animals, and a belief in art as a force for connection and healing.
