While it may be considered a “sickening” thought to think about, fall is a great time of year to get creative. All of the colors in nature have such brightness and interest that it’s hard to look at yourself in the mirror and not be inspired to bring your own colorful paintings to life.
When I was little, it was hard not to get the urge to draw. I would get in the car with my mom and head off to the nature center while she drew. I was amazed that after all these years I still remembered most of what I drew.
My mom loved to draw and was the artist of the family. She was a talented artist and loved to draw all kinds of things. I remember watching her paint her first pieces of art in watercolor on the side of her barn. I can still clearly see the bright colors and shapes that were painted on the sides of her barn. This was before watercolor was popular, but it was still a great way to make a piece of art.
I do not remember my mom being any kind of a great artist, but I do remember seeing her in a gallery and saying, “Wow, that’s a really nice piece of art.
Back in the day, when I was a pre-schooler, my mom worked for a local family of artists and did some portraits and watercolors. The art she made was really beautiful and I can remember being so amazed that she could paint with such a limited amount of materials. She never really gave many lessons to me or my siblings about art, but I do remember her doing a lot of family portraits and showing us what she did.
The art she made for us was mostly from scratch. She just got the materials and did the paintings. She used oil paints and brushes and she did them in her garage. I’m sure that was quite a challenge for her, but she always seemed to be able to get them to look just right. I remember being so impressed with the way she painted me that I tried to do the same thing myself.
The first time you paint, it’s a pretty big step. There’s a lot of pressure on you. After that, it’s just a matter of getting comfortable in your studio space, figuring out how to get your brushes and paint strokes in the most beautiful way.
I guess I’m not the only one who thinks that it’s a bit weird that we’re painting with brushes we didn’t have growing up. It always seemed like a big responsibility to me but I never quite felt like I was able to tackle the task. But it’s something I’m learning to embrace.
In general, the art you make at a young age can be quite difficult. However, there are a few things you can do to help ease the transition. For me, I really liked the idea of doing my art in a way that made it a little less of a big deal. I mean, I can definitely appreciate the value of a beautiful piece of art, but it has a tendency to seem more important than the person who made it.
