I know, I could have kept her skin soft and silky.......but it's really not as interesting as crackling paint. Maybe that's why we get wrinkled and leathery...just to keep it interesting.......
I have always been an artist and have made my way through many mediums. I really honed my creative eyes while running a small gallery in a beautiful, arts town nestled on the shore of Kootenay Lake, British Columbia, Canada. After 6 years of listening to people respond to art,....... I decided to let go, tune in, and have some fun. The more fun I had painting, the quicker my paintings sold. I really don't plan much before I begin to paint. My technique is be totally intuitive. Clear, bright colours,and strong, sure line define childlike celebration.They are simple reminders to focus on happiness.
Nelson, British Columbia sparkles with spectacular scenery, an old time ambience, talented artists, and an incredibly vibrant community. People walk around with smiles on their faces. Mermaid Gallery was perched on the hillside, on the fringe of the downtown core, with a lovely view of Kootenay Lake. Many artists, tourists, and townsfolk enjoyed it's cheerful vibe. The town is very small though and during those shoulder seasons there was very little business. Online marketing seemed to be the alternative to a storefront, and during the fall of 2009 we closed Mermaid Gallery's doors. It is with excitement we enter cyberspace.....whoooooooooohoooooooooooooooo
