 Painting I won from my soon to be Watercolor teacher Maren Waddill.

Mom & I did the Art trails Studio Tour one day and just had a blast seeing all the talented gifted Artists in Yuma.

I was so in love with watercolor painting and Acrylic painting.  Mom kept bugging me to take a class and when we were visiting the artists they had drawings to win a painting and I won this one.

Maren is a outstanding artist, her home is filled with her wonderful work.  I'll be starting back up with her again in Dec 2012.
In April 2012 I joined the Mountain Shadows Artist Association so I can learn from all these great Artists, Mom was thrilled!!!

Jackpot on Art Supplies

 My friend sharon Mead called me up one day and said her neighbor had some art stuff . The guy was pitching it and did she know anyone who would want them. So Sharon called me and I came right over- WOW I was overwelmed!!  I asked how much he wanted for all the stuff and he shocked me by saying only $5.00!!!  I was so thrilled I gave him $9.00.  Dan laughed that I paid more than what the guy asked for but the guy had no clue how much all those supplies were worth!!  I scanned all the price codes because all the canvases were new and the price for everything was up to $255.00!!!  With canvas you do Acrylic or Oil painting so looks like I will be doing a different kind of painting-GRIN  Thanks again Sharon for calling me!!
