Artist’s Statement
As a late-comer to oil painting, having raised five children and worked full time in my native New England, I finally, after many years, acquired the specific knowledge and supplies to nurture a calling to craft the art of oil painting.
There is so much more to painting that I had ever thought: the values, the composition, color theory, for example. I have explored worked with watercolor then moved exclusively to oils.
I belong to the Franklin Art Association, BVAA, Lyme Art Association, OPA, and the Massachusetts Plein Air Association.
Keep it up! Great examples of your work shown, you aspire that anything is possible, anytime.
