Hi, I realised I started posting in the gallery and Q&A thread without introducing myself - how rude!!
I'm Lucy and I'm from Berkshire. I've enjoyed painting and art since I was a child, ending up at art college before having to get a 'proper' job. I put it on the back burner in my twenties for years as work just meant I did not have very much spare time at all.
I am not working at the moment and have a huge cupboard full of art supplies I have bought over the years and never used (i am like a magpie in art stores) So far since in my restart I have tried; pen and ink, acrylics, and graphite with varying degrees of success - but it's fun giving it all a try.
My aim is to hone my observational/drawing skills without loosing the movement and definition of brushstroke I tend to prefer.
Anyway, hi everyone, I've been having a little browse through the gallery and forums and there are so many seriously talented people here, as well as supportive and encouraging.
Thanks, Lucy.
