After taking up painting later in life i have so enjoyed the comradery of my fellow art buddies. The relationship between painting and conversations can give you confidence to be yourself and show it within your art pieces, and to just do it. A life time of my love of nature, flora, fauna in and around me everyday is expressed in my paintings. I will always give it a go and if it works thats great and if it does'nt work i can learn and experiment and grow.
