I am an artist from northeast Pennsylvania. At a young age my grandfather introduced me to the art of drawing and painting. My goal is to create inspiring works that could be enjoyed for generations to come.
Painting and drawing have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My work relies on color, form and pattern, in that order. I work in acrylic, oil and watercolor. I especially enjoy painting in acrylics for the boldness of the palette options and ability to add texture to my paintings. However, the flow of watercolor offers freedom and “happy surprises,” adding to the immediacy of my paintings. Oil gives me the ability to add depth and fluency.
I’ve been seriously studying portraits for the challenge and ability to portray human emotion.
I am 67 and believed all my life I couldn’t draw.
Something grabbed my attention when I realised drawings are built up in layers.
The Drawing Academy was like meeting an old friend whose return I have been waiting for all my art life.
Paint not blood ran in my veins. my painting and drawing were as natural to me as breathing.

My name is Catherin and I am a person who was not much interested in art, but recently during hard times art sometimes took the place of an escape.
Hi, I’m a self taught artist and someone who wishes I could do this every day!
My name is Angelique Stefan. I am a self taught artist that is eager to advance and learn more. Art is a dream coming from a young woman who was raised in an impoverished environment.
My name is Ildi, I love to paint but drawing is not my favourite part because I never had the chance to learn how to draw.
