My first stab at painting....

So I have given you a peek into my favorite sketch that I did when I was 16, I also gave you a peek at my first tattoo design when I was about 24.  Now I am going to give you a peek into my first stab at seriously painting. 

I first dabbled in painting when I was about 13, I think....I remembered that I did not like it as much as I thought I would. Ha Ha Ha Ha....I could not figure out why I was not connecting with my paintbrush so I never tried it again unless my art teacher, Mrs Dodys, told me I had to for a grade ;-)

Last year a friend of mine invited me to one of those BYOB painting classes.  There I met another fellow artist, Rebecca Coates. Shout out to Rebecca! ;-)
She promised me that I would love painting and what do you know....I fell in love and now I can't stop.  So this first piece I did is a sunset on a lake with trees....that sort of thing.

Not exactly a masterpiece but I really fell for painting at this time and found myself signing up for those classes every chance I got until.....once day I decided, "Can't I just do this on my own in my home???" 
And so now, I do. ;-) Pin It Now!
