Every day is different when painting figures. Some days are successful and some days we end up scraping the paint off the canvas. There is a element of surprise from each sitting. Confident is how I describe this model 11x14 oil
When I first started my blog three years ago it was of Sunflowers. I thought it appropriate to keep the tradition . Hope all of you had a great year. I missed your comments and support. I have spent many hours doing figurative drawing and paintings. I hope you enjoy seeing some changes and hopefully growth over the past year. cheers.
I am a native of Charleston , South Carolina. My early artistic expression was through the lens of a camera where it was a passion to capture the unique expressions of the human spirit. That passion is still alive , but through paint brush,ink, and oils. I am most inspired when painting from observation of life and nature.
I am in my third year at The Art Academy University online MFA. My classes have challenged and inspired me more than I ever imagined. I am in my fifth year of being a member of The Charleston Artist Collective online gallery. It has been a great experience to be with a local group of artist who stretch with the monthly themes all the while giving back to our community a percentage of our sales. It is also a pleasure to be showing in a new gallery in Charlottesville, Va. with a talented group of artist from around the country.
