I am a Professional Artist in Fairhope, Alabama. My work is in multiple media but my favorite is Acrylics~next in line Watercolors and then Oils. My favorite subjects include local wildlife, landscape~usually with boats, and obsession paintings (looking at other peoples obsessions in a new way).I participate in a lot of outdoor shows with helper and spouse Christopher. I do several outdoor shows a year and this blog is about the adventures getting ready for them.

My Friends Pier
This painting was a lesson for my USA students and I believe they all turned out well. One of them had a beautiful foggy effect and others were just gorgeous. Some of the students really liked them, others count it as a learning experience. Tonight was our last Oil class and as usual, I am feeling already like I am missing a bunch of old friends. I really hope they all continue to paint.
I really can't emphasize enough the importance of giving yourself a gift when you are learning to paint. The gift of time.......... Time behind a brush is the only way to become a better painter. Time to make your own mistakes and dig yourself out of them. Time to experiment. Time to learn, but most of all Time to play in the paint. SOLD
