Inspired to be an artist at an early age. Rebecca is pleased that her pursuits are slowly becoming reality. She was taught the Tufa Cast technique by her husband Darryl and greatly enjoys it. Although she has a degree in Secondary Art Education and taught high school art courses at Rehoboth Christian School, she decided the raising of her three sons is her first priority. Now, she creates jewelry along side of her husband and hopes to fulfill other endeavors as an artist; creating more work in various mediums. Her next project is writing and illustrating children's books. She thanks and gives credit to God for her talent and all the other blessings in her life.

"The Inspiration of my art comes from within, who I am as a Navajo woman, mother, wife, artist and Christian. I love what I do." ~ Rebecca Begay
