I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. I started drawing when I was a little girl and never stopped. My mother was a wonderful artist and my inspiration. I used to watch her draw and paint and was mesmerized by the beautiful drawings and paintings she created. I would draw on any scrap piece of paper I could find as a child. As I got older, I started trying different mediums: charcoal, pencil, chalk, pastels, and then I started painting with oils. My mother and I would take an art class occasionally at the local community college; that’s when my love for watercolors began.
My need for art has increased over the years. I feel a sense of peace while painting or drawing. It is my escape from the real world.
Art is a release into a world of creativity and a time to leave the worries of the world behind. When painting or drawing, I am totally focused on what I’m working on and get lost in what I’m doing. I love the feeling when a piece is complete. I can’t describe the feeling, but it is a true sense of joy and satisfaction. I am always amazed at the finished piece and know that my talent is a God-given talent.
As I get older, I am trying to focus more on painting and drawing. Whether it be a watercolor painting, a Zentangle drawing, or a mural on a wall; my paint brushes and pens are always ready. I still love to dabble in crafts, such as pinestraw baskets, Cairn rock statues, pebble art, vintage jewelry art, jewelry design, gourd art, and rock wrapping, whenever I’m not painting.
