Julie

Oil on gallery-wrapped canvas

My niece, Julie, who was tragically taken from us last September. This is the result of my effort to capture her lovely essence from a grainy photo.

Painting can often enough an act of homage & healing. What a lovely gift to those who care. Nicely done Dicksie.

About Me

I have loved painting, sketching, playing with colors for as long as I can remember, but that love has always been relegated to "later" or "when I have time." Well, it's later and I've decided to make the time. I've learned through the tutelage of mentors, trial and error, watching U-tube and videos I’ve purchased, studying other artists' work, and attending workshops. I particularly love portraiture--of course I would choose the most difficult genre! (A friend recently asked me if I was still painting my way through the family album.) I also love painting still lifes. I see art in everything, and I look forward to sharing my late-blooming passion!
