My introduction to painting came to me in the mid 90's as a birthday present from my son. He knew how much I appreciated art, and thought I would enjoy taking a few classes. Here we are almost 20 years later, and I'm still painting and learning.
I started with watercolor and in the last few years tried oil. I've won two merit awards at the Smith Mountain Lake Art Show, and a first place watercolor at one of the Bald Knob Best Pick Art Shows. I've also been commissioned to capture "home portraits" as a unique house warming or anniversary gift.
