Girls being girls being girls being girls...

The Arts Council in my county displays art all around the area, and they often ask art teachers to display their work.  An art teacher in the area was supposed to display her work in a local restaurant, but she ended up not being able to, so they asked me if I would.  That lead me to actually make a little body of work!  I usually make custom art for clients, so it was fun to make some art "for art's sake." I asked my husband if I made too many girls, and he told me "You can never have too many girls" while he was holding our little girl kitty and watching our little girl puppy.  So here you go...my "girls."
I take a lot of inspiration from Picasso, Matisse, and songs I'm listening to at the moment.  I enjoy bright colors, patterns, and [obviously] portraiture.  I consider watercolors to be my strength, but it was fun to dabble in acrylics and mixed media.
