Art is something I've always loved. I was the artist in the family and every where I went. Artists are strange people that have a passion to recreate the beauty God has made! They want to drawl it, paint it, or capture it in a photograph or other form of art!! They want to share that captured moment with others. Leaving Chicago where I grew up, I moved out to Oregon to live with my sister. I enrolled in a college there and majored in Art and early childhood education. I loved the North West, the mountains and beauty so I stayed, married and raised seven children! After raising most of my children and remarying I finally had some time to paint and travel!! My Husband is a wonderful colorist artist and I have learned many things from him.We love to travel and paint together!! I also went back to college for a year where I took figure painting, drawling with one of of Oregons finest Artist 'Adam Grosowsky' and a poetry class. I have used some of the figure poses from my painting and drawing classes for my finished work that I have posted here. I am enjoying this sight. and discovering some wonderful art work and artists here.
