I've been creating...coloring, drawing, painting and more since I was a child. I took art all four years in high school. As an adult, I've taken an occasional sketching class or a day or week-long watercolor painting class here and there. But mostly I'm self-taught. It's only been the last few years that I've taken more time to paint. Always, watercolor painting is both challenging and my favorite. Nature inspires me. When I'm walking, I see something that catches my eye and I'm drawn to putting some small part of it down on paper, using line, angle, shape, light and watercolor paints.
