Artwork by Cynthia Breslin

I don’t have one

My name is Cynthia Breslin. I am 60 years old. I have two children and live in Sarasota Florida.

I have always wanted to paint but lack natural talent. I’ve had to support myself and never had the time to Pursue my art. I’m at the age that I have more time so am trying to improve.

I have problems with proportions and lack of information on color theory. I want to be able to better use lights and darks and choose appropriate colors while doing so.

Art helps me to go to another world. I broke my neck and back and live in chronic pain. When I paint I forget about the pain, it’s magic!! I would like to win this because it would make me feel I should go for my dream of being a painter.
