Introduction

I love art in all its forms. I paint ceramics, and recently I started taking watercolour painting classes. I also like photography. Joining a group like this it may be an opportunity for me get in touch with people who share my same interests.

Can you help me by planning one event per year??? :-)

Sure.

Why Fine Art? (This question is open-ended on purpose.)

Art brings beauty not only to my eyes, but also to my soul. When I contemplate a masterpiece be it a painting, pothograph or sculpture I feel so grateful to the artists who, sometimes unkonwingly, left us their legacy of talent and love.

Do you have a favorite art style, medium, gallery, and/or museum (and why)?

I particularly love Impressionism as an art style. As of medium, my favorites are watercolour, oil painting, collage, and ceramic painting. D'Orsay museum in Paris is one of my favorites because it exhibits the work of painters I admire, such as Matisse, Renoir, etc.

Do you have a favorite artist (and why)?

Renoir, Mary Cassat from the Impressionist school and many, many, many others. I specially like Mary Cassat for being able to capture children and women's souls so beautifully in her paintings.

Do you have a background in Fine Art or are you just an art fan?

Just art fan. Took oil painting classes in the past. Have sold my hand painted ceramics at art galleries and exhibited at the OC fair.
