Brushstrokes! My art journey.
Ranked #37,536 in Arts & Design, #1,329,644 overall
Art, like life, is a journey!
This lens is a snapshot of my art and life as a daily painter, mom, & high school art teacher as these activities converge with my faith as a Christian. There are lots of curves on the path, which is what I try to chronicle and explore both visually and with the written word.
My art blog, Brushstrokes, etc.
My blog is updated every few days with new images and information about the artistic process. I often give steps in the making of a particular piece as well as what motivated me to paint it. I often explain what I have learned along the way.
Most of my paintings are for sale, and a link is attached for purchase.
