My Ongoing Journey of Discovery Through Art:
I FIND ART IS AN ONGOING JOURNEY OF DISCOVERY. DEVELOPING AND IMPROVING MY SKILLS, PUSHING MYSELF INTO NEW
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
AREAS OF CREATIVE EXPRESSION, BEING ON THE BRINK OF EXCITEMENT AS I EXPLORE NEW TECHNIQUES KEEPS MY PEAK OF INTEREST VERY HIGH.
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
THE SOURCE OF MY INSPIRATION COMES FROM WITHIN AND TRUSTING IN THAT INNER SELF, I FIND AN UNLIMITED AND MORE POSITIVE DIRECTION.
THE VERSATILITY OF WATERMEDIA SUITS MY STYLE OF INTUITIVE ABSTRACTION AND IS A CHALLENGE TO MY CREATIVITY AND LOVE OF EXPERIMENTATION. I FIND THAT WHICH INTRIGUES ME THE MOST IN MY ENDEAVOURS AS AN ARTIST, IS BEING ABLE TO SEE AND PAINT IN A WAY THAT IS VERY UNIQUE.
