At some point in my career, "how to paint" got easy and my biggest problem became "what to paint."
Maybe I never really outgrew playing "dress ups" as a girl. I go out of my way to make my models fun, interesting and challenging to paint. If I weren't a painter, I'd probably be a costume designer in the theatre.
Because I paint in layers with annoyingly long drying times, I honestly don't know how I'd cram all I know into a decent length workshop that didn't eat up an entire month (or more). I'm currently experimenting with Genesis (heat set oils) and maybe that will speed up the process....
