If I could I would breathe art, 24-7. My first love is water color painting. A lot of people tell me I am the most creative person they've met. That's a huge compliment, sometimes I feel it's too big live up to. I have been with the Artist Trading Card Committee since 2011. I experiment a lot, using different mediums, doodles with structure; I love bright color. I try all kinds of mediums from water color, ink, acrylics, photography and mixed media. I have even made cards from from play clay.
I usually have fun, in my work, home and play. Most times it shows through my art, with the bright colors. I enjoy drawing or painting nature. The majestic trees inspire me, but you never know where inspiration comes from. Lately I was fascinated by spring mud. I am always open to new experiences and mediums to explore and broaden my imagination to existence in an art piece, be it an ATC card, painting, or what ever inspires me. |
