I have my BFA in drawing from UNH, and have being drawing since I could walk! Besides using various drawing media, I also enjoy watercolor and pastels. My main focus in watercolor and/or pastels is the different effects on color by light & shadows. Reflections also fascinate me. The colors on glass and shiny surfaces (ie: marbles, jars, silver) seem brighter and more vibrant and it is fun to enhance the cast shadows from those surfaces too. Other subjects I enjoy drawing & painting are portraits, animals, architectural structures (barns, doorways, etc), landscapes, & spring flowers. "I have found the artistic process to be a wonderful outlet for my self-expression, creativity, and imagination. The process of creating art is very soothing to me and improves my problem solving skills. And I consider drawing to be the most important artistic skill to master, and continually remind myself when I am drawing to listen to my eyes and not my brain. I teach drawing and watercolor on the weekends, and enjoy watching the weekly progress of my student's artwork as they learn new techniques." |
