I'm a native Texan. I've had some years living in Seattle, WA, and plan to return to Texas this year, to live in the Texas Hill Country, which is beautiful and rural. I have been interested in art all my life, though I never had the confidence or encouragement to pursue art programs in school (until my 50's) or establish a daily art practice. Now I am doing it, and am getting tremendous results.
I am mostly vegan, aspire to be raw vegan, an animal and nature lover. I love to cook and go for long walks in nature. I believe we as a global civilization are going through a crisis now, which will take us to the next level as an advanced civilization . . . and we will meet our galactice neighbors/star civilizations.
I'm currently experimenting with sketching, painting, illustrated journaling, and mixed media. I vacillate between learning loose, quick, sketchy drawings and wondering whether to work on more realistic drawings. I do love expressive figure drawing and sketchy portraits. I hope to make time for learning some lettering, as the old-fashioned writing is so beautiful.
