About the Artist

My name is Natalie Sweet, I have 14 years of Law Enforcement experience and currently work as a freelance forensic artist for various law enforcement agencies as well as private individuals.   I believe that composite art is a very useful tool and I have found that it is often not utilized to its fullest potential as another crime fighting tool.

In 1983 I attended the Instutute for Business and Technology and received a degree in Mechanical Drafting. I continued my training which included classes in Computer Aided Drafting, Electronic Drafting and Architectural Drafting. I worked as a drafter and a cartographer utilizing both board drawings and computer aided drawings.

In 1994 I decided on a career change. Having an interest in Law Enforcement, I entered the police academy and began my new career as a police officer.

I have always enjoyed art and have been drawing and painting since I was a child. My love of art has never left me and after settling into my career in Law Enforcement I began taking private art lessons, learning how to create portraits of people and animals. I sought a way of combining my love of art and a Law Enforcement career. The combination came naturally and I became a Composite Artist.

I received my POST certified composite art training from Carrie Stuart Parks and Rick Parks of Stuart Parks Forensic Associates (www.stuartparks.com). My training includes the following classes: Composite Drawing for Law Enforcement: Basic class, Composite Drawing for Law Enforcement: Workshop I, Composite Drawing for Law Enforcement: Certification, Composite Drawing for Law Enforcement: Advanced Forensic Artist Seminar, Composite Drawing for Law Enforcement: Advanced Forensic Art. I received additional forensic art training in 3 dimensional facial reconstruction from Betty Pat. Gatliff in Norman, Oklahoma. My training includes a Basic Facial Reconstruction class and an Advanced Facial Reconstruction class.

In addition to working as a forensic artist for my agency, my forensic art services are also available to other Law Enforcement Agencies.
