I became interested in painting through folk art lessons using acrylics many years ago. I learned about contrast, highlights, and brushwork.  I’ve always loved dreamy watercolors, took lessons, and enjoy painting flowers the most.  I’ve dabbled in oils, too.  However, my latest art adventure, in the past two years, has been pastels.  I continue to take lessons as it makes me paint regularly.  I find some of my work to be ho-hum and other paintings I really like and frame.  I’m sure every artist feels the same way…..but you just have to keep painting!
