| Introduction | I reside in a small rural area in Northern New England, where the summer sun can be very hot and the winter snow can get very high. You can say that I am a self-taught artist, through loads of drawing instruction books and my friends' knowledge. My start in art came in the form of painting rocks, which I had lots of fun with for about 3 years, by attending some Holiday craft fairs and always selling out. But selling painted rocks was on my way to drawing. That was one of those times in life where I just had to move up to what it is that I really wanted to do, artistically; drawing. I've been drawing for 5 years, have learned a few things, but I have so much more to learn, and to draw. |
