Jennifer Williams "Blueskysunburn" said...: This is really cool! I've always been envious of those who can just sit at a keyboard and make music. I had no idea this is how she makes some of her songs!; July 12, 2009 7:58 PM
Poetic Artist said...: That is great to watch a artist at work. I will have to play that again.
Thanks for sharing.

My Art

Folk Art with a Contemporary touch.
I paint things I like and hope you like it too!
My art is inspired by sweet things in my life, my loving family , my friends and sometimes by my goofy sense of humor. My life is filled with music, artful things & loving people. I am blessed.
My love of painting faces began in the early 90's after taking classes with Walt Sorenson a former Art Director at Disney.
Some of my paintings are textured with fine sand before the real painting begins. I love the texture, movement, depth & organic imperfections it creates. I also love painting on recycled wood. It gives me pleasure turning waste into somethnig wonderful.
After years of painting subjects to look like photographs I let myself go and have never enjoyed painting more. Now I don't usually draw anything out on the canvas or wood before beginning a piece. I just paint it and let it come to life.
My art has sold throughout the US & Internationally.
