BOTH parents were artists,draftsmen/how they met, & both of them loved people..I was born an artist.
Dad called mumViolet 'The Queen of Yack' & I told him I must be the Princess, he said he guessed so. Dad's humor is still with me/I adore making people laugh.
I was there in the 60's, I was just REALLY short.
Picasso was still ALIVE!! I saw Picasso LIVE on TV whilst he painted on glass--I told my 4yr old self:
THAT is for ME!! Been hooked on Art ever since.
Lost mum Vi to "C", but my awesome stepmom Catherine implored my dad to support my intense art hunger at my young age of 5. Though my parental units are gone, they encourage me clear from Heaven.
Every possible medium growing up. In HS, for 2yrs studied Lost Wax casting jewelry with Otto Duecker, it was pottery or jewely, clay's not my bag. Google Otto for his amazing Realism showing in NM, CA & UK
At OU Fred Jones Fine Arts School, my Major was Painting. Life Drawing, Conceptual Theory, Color Theory, Art History and so forth (86credit hours) after 15yrs are no longer counted, so have become merely awesome brainfiles, but the 80's were a gas.
I accessed Lost Wax after college in '89, so I'd like to access the equipment again.
I'm a Theraputic Artist/Contractual Visual Artist for 2 locations & enjoy serving artfully often as possible.
I'm thrilled to have joined Art Conspiracy(LINKS) last year & since then have met many wonderful artists.
