Enchanted Artist

Oil Painting, Watercolour, Landscape, Portrait, Pet Portrait

I am a contemporary artist who takes inspiration from my surroundings, using form and texture, light and shadows to create my paintings. I love to paint the Cornish coastline as there is an endless expanse of material to select from. I am predominately a self taught artist but at 37 I have decided to engage in a formal art qualification BA Hons Painting for self development purposes. My family grew up to be manual workers and hence were encouraged to leave school and find a job. I want to prove to myself that there is more to life than money, there is quality of being, self worth and pride. I love art and wouldn't want my life any other way.

Hi Patricia how are you havn't heard from you in ages hope you are well

Hi Patricia thanks for your reply I will google some properties...I get so homesick at this time of the year with the heat I just can't stand it...it didn't bother me so much when I was younger but with being Irish I avoid the sun and I find the blockout just makes me itch like hell even my daughter is now becoming more aware they get spray on tans and I now notice she is using blockout thanks to my nagging...painting is out for me at the moment I can't find the energy so getting the computer out and talking to you all is a great passtime at the moment

Hi Patricia good to hear from you and that you are well...it's been too hot here for me to feel like painting so i'm just blogging although today was lovely and cool and the same tomorrow...I have noticed that a lot of people are moving to the Isle of Wight it must be lovely...if you don't mind me asking and you don't have to answer if it's too personal but is it expensive there...to buy property and live a reasonable lifestyle and of course the weather?...that's what puts my Hubby off he hates being too cold although he always breaths a sigh of relief when the first rains come...I know on the mainland they have really been suffering with sub-zero temps he would hate that lately though as he nears retirement i've noticed signs of discontentment...like you I have never really settled ...what a lot of questions but I really don't know how many more of these summers I can take yet we do have a very comfortable lifestyle here..well enough have you started your class yet and if so are the new floors looking good...i've been trolling the web looking for a suitable class close to home but there are few and what they have are so expensive so I think i'll continue on at home and keep looking by for now and sorry about the questions
