Art Experience: General drawing through childhood and teen years. Ten
years ago I decided to pursue my (mediums.) I began
with pencil then to chalks, then to oils. In addition, I have
taken instruction classes for six years from artist,
Kathy Chester. While there, I learned more about pencils
and pastel chalks. Now, for the last four years, and the
beginning of my fifth year I have been taking instructions
from artist David Gillihan. Both of theses artist have
pursued their instructions and learning from well known
artist world wide.
Reason for Beginning to Paint: The passion and love for art, relaxation, making
something for someone else to enjoy, and most of all for
them to see what I have seen of my subject. Whether it be
a person, place, animal, or object, the meaning and
story of ones painting is part of the art.
Artist’s Statement:
I enjoy painting and choosing a
subject that best conveys a
story, attitude, or thought.
Painting allows others to see
through to part of my heart
that speaks of my passion and
love for my work as well as my
personality. Thank you for your
interest in my work.
Brief Description of Displayed Work:
God’s promise:
Is the breaking of the clouds, and
the sun shinning again with its rays
bursting through to a new
beginning along with a dove, which
is a symbol of peace that makes
this painting speak of Faith.
Rainy Day Fun:
This is a child, no matter what the
weather condition is, who enjoys
God’s moments with fun, play, and
make believe.
A Mother’s Love:
This picture is one of my pastel
chalk pictures that I have done
using black, gray, and white pastel
chalks. It is a mother with her
child. This picture illustrates a
mother’s tender touch which
allows them to bond their hearts
together for life.
