Sunglow

18x22 Oil on Canvas

When I first began painting, I did a painting titled Sun Glow. The original work was very nice but it wasn't blended quite as well as I wanted. Being a beginner, I wasn't sure how to go about it, and the final painted ended up a bit cloudy. I always wanted to do another Sun Glow painting. This one really looks nothing like the original but that's okay. I like the bright, bold colors of this painting. As this year is drawing to a close, this will probably be my last post for the year. A group of artists I belong to have decided to try for a painting a day this upcoming year so I hope you'll visit again to see what I come up with in 2013. Happy New Years!

About Me

My original love was the performing arts. I grew up dancing, and it was my dream to be a professional ballet dancer. That was not to be so I turned to other forms of creativity. It's only been within the past few years that I discovered painting. I'd forgotten how much I loved drawing as a child. Maybe this is a passion re-awakened! I'm a self-taught artist and always looking to learn new techniques. One of the things I've always classified myself as is a "perpetual student". I love learning, and I love experimenting with new techniques. For me, this is one of the best parts of art; experiencing new things is more important to me than the finished piece. So you never know what I'll end up with. Hope you'll enjoy the experience too!
