By tackling challenging subjects, I think a person improves more quickly than operating in the safety zone. I admire your ability to capture the ordinary to good effect.
I was doing a lot of sketching the past few months in the Art from Life forum's scavenger hunts on WC. The group challenged me to step out of my comfort zone. Normally I don't do people, but I forced myself to keep doing them. I like the results. Thanks.
I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage.
Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.
