Beauty in nature

The visual arts has brought me through 37 years of life. It kept me occupied as a young child, and has given me a career goal as an adolescent. Today, it is what I must do to stay alive with my sanity in order. Throughout my journey in life, I have always wanted the ability to draw like the old masters do. To have the technical clarity to express myself in any way, shape, or value is more than a desire. It is a need that I have neglected for to long.

A “Wanna Be” Artist – Novice to Pro

I am a retired school administrator (gifted and talented, Advanced Placement programs). I have loved art since I was in grade school and encouraged by my mom. I received a full oil painting set when I graduated from high school and took a few college classes in art. I did very little painting while raising a family but when I retired I began painting again. I made progress but never could get to the “advanced artist” level.

It’s not a Florence, not Paris, not Barcelona, not Madrid, not St-Petersburg where I met the most beautiful piece of art. The place where that piece is kept – North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh (no kidding). The masterpiece is marble sculpture of Venus Italica by Antonio Canova. In the museum it used to stand in dark room with soft light. The light and shadows emphases beautiful shapes and texture of the statue. When look at it you better understand what means idiom “marble skin” and why ancient Greeks adore the sculptures and the artists who created them…

A rose by any other name

My name is Amanda and at 30 years old I finally decided what is it I want to do for the rest of my life. I started taking Graphic Design classes online in August. Luckily I have a very supportive Husband and two young children that think it’s so cool that Mom goes to school on the computer.

I have loved art since as long as I can remember and have dragged my family into every art museum every vacation we ever had. I’ve taken every extra art class I could in school, but I know I need more to really feel good about my artwork.

My control over graphite

I have graduated from an autonomous college of fine arts in Bangalore, India. I believe that I can tell my prayers to the creator by doing my work. And my line of work is art. Art is a medium through which i tell my prayers, an unconditional prayer.
