Painting Techniquesfor the Artist in You
Sharing my painting techniques Every painting has a story that goes with it. Something catches my eye and it resides patiently in my brain until I finally get the time to sit down and paint it. Since I don't always get to painting what I want for a while, I make sure to have my camera with me to capture the moment so it is there when I'm ready. This is "Peaceful Perch", a water-soluble oil painted on an 11x14 Ampersand textured board.

My paintings vary from small one made specifically for cards
