A Look Back on the 30 Day Painting Challenge: Animals

Welcome!

Welcome! Hello, and thank you very kindly for visiting my blog! I am a fine arts artist who draws and paints portraits of mainly women and children in the African American family using mixed media in a loose realism. My subject matters are inspired by both the late artists Mary Cassatt and Henry Ossowa Tanner, as many stories of the African American family life and the themes of women and children permeate my canvases. However, I do enjoy switching it up a bit with still lifes, landscapes, and kaleidoscope drawings.

I draw and paint because I love to capture beautiful sweet moments and freeze them into time, so that they can not be forgotten or ignored. I love to savor sweet precious moments that can all too quickly be lost, and thus unappreciated, on account of the pace of and influence of time. I love to freeze the rapid scenes of life and capture them in my paintings so that they can long endure on my canvas for everyone to savor and enjoy for as long as they'd like.

I draw and paint because I am a constantly inspired. My mind is always effervescent with ideas, as I am always enthused by something: Something always sparks my interest, which always sparks an idea that I can use in my work later, as an artist. All these ideas bubbling inside my brain just have to be released: Out from the corners of my brain, down in to my right hand, and out onto my canvas and/or illustration board. The result is a beautiful piece of work : A drawing and/or painting for everyone's enjoyment!

Please take some time to look around and browse my blog. I'm sure you'll find something that you'll find of interest to you.
