My day job is as a Registered Nurse. I am someone who used to absolutely love creating art. Then somehow life got in the way and it went by the wayside for more than 40 years! Now I’m back at it and trying to learn as much as I can. I started back by doing zen doodling. From there, I worked in colored pencils, then watercolor pencils for about a year or so. I have found that my love is creating animals, and have done quite a few commissioned pieces of people’s pets using that art form. I am currently learning oils and have recently completed my first two oil paintings, which are pelicans. I have recently ordered pan pastels, which I aspire to learn next. So many mediums, so little time! I am just so excited to have reentered the art world, and look forward to continue learning!
