ONE I WISH I'D KEPT- IT'S HARD TO GIVE SOME UP
|
I'VE BEEN A MOVIE EXTRA FOR THE LAST 8 YEARS ( X-MEN, JOHN Q with Denzel Washington, SALEM WITCH TRIALS with Kirstie Ally and Shirley McLaine and about 70 other movies ). SOMEONE HAS TO SIT IN THE NEXT BOOTH IN A RESTAURANT OR BE IN THE SAME STORE SHOPPING NEAR THEM OR WALKING BY THEM IN THE STREET!
I'M ALSO THE FRONT PERSON FOR A PSYCHIC WHO READS PEOPLE AND ANIMALS ( CATS, DOGS, HORSES, HEDGEHOGS IN WEE PINK BLANKET, BIRDS, SQUIRRELS ETC. ). GEE, THIS SOUNDS PRETTY INTERESTING FOR A BORING PERSON LIKE ME!
I LOVE TO READ AND I'VE STARTING PAINTING AGAIN AFTER A LO O O O NG TIME. I WON A LOT OF COMPETITIONS FOR ART IN MY TEENS THEN STOPPED PAINTING AT 22, FINALLY AFTER 30 YEARS, I DUG UP MY OLD PAINTS AND BRUSHES AND HERE I AM! SO YOU'RE NEVER TOO OLD AND IT'S NEVER TOO LATE!!!
I'M VERY HAPPILY MARRIED TO A GREAT GUY AND HAVE TWO GROWN UP KIDS, TWO CATS AND A PIT BULL ( WHO SHOULD BE CALLED DR. PHIL AND NOT TAFFY! ) WHO LOVES TO SOLVE PROBLEMS AND GIVE HUGS!

| Watercolor painting has gotten a bad rap for a long time. Many artists agree that it is very hard to control, especially when paint is applied to wet paper. Some artists have tried to avoid this problem and usually paint on dry paper. As a result you get too many hard edges giving a "pasted-on" feeling, as well as not taking advantage of one of the best virtues of watercolor painting, that is, wet on wet with nice, soft diffused areas. | |
