My first painting...ever!

This is this absolute first painting I ever did.  Can you tell it's of two green apples?  If so, I would be shocked. 
I started oil painting in 2006 by enrolling in a beginning class with Jody Regan at the North River Arts Society. That first day, that first color wheel, that first smudge of paint on my nose, I was hooked.  I absolutely loved it...and still do.  I will be forever grateful to Jody, Sue Charles and Margaret McWethy at the NRAS for their patience, humor and excellent instruction.  And Laura Harvey, for putting all those classes together!
I hope you enjoy this blog and my art.  Please comment freely. From time to time, posted paintings will be available for sale.

  2. I love that you have saved your first painting. You are very brave to share - I don't think I would be that brave. It is an impressive first painting. You had it going on right from the start.
