# About me

There once was a girl who liked paint.
In most of her methods was quaint.
She walked down the street
with naught on her feet,
and yet had no cause for complaint.

This girl she loved to climb trees
and frolicked in meadows with ease.
She watched the deer graze
and marveled their ways
and felt the warm air in the breeze.

This girl I have mentioned is me.
I love to be totally free.
The urge to create
Always has been innate
Forever an artist I will be.

Ahahahaha, well whoever doesn't like Monty Python has issues. Of course, those of us who DO like them have even bigger ones!

Ps. Nice gallery!!

Let me just say, your artwork is the most beautiful I have seen in long time. You capture light and shading billiantly, most of your portraits are perfect, and your landscapes are literally breathtaking because of your impressionistic style and depth in the image, rolling over fields and out over the faded mountains. I look forward to seeing more work. :) (Smile)

Aw shucks! I really appreciate your compliments...so sweet! I hope to continue to improve! I was peeking at some of your stuff as well, and I must say you are by no means devoid of talent yourself! Just wonderful!! I love how artists can both be artists, yet so entirely different! It never gets boring that way :D (Big Grin)

pencilpaperdone In reply to KateTortland [2012-02-11 00:04:53 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, no prob :) (Smile) I actually critique art I appreciate, instead of just saying "OH SO COOL!!! THE BLUE IS AWESOME!!! BLAAHHH!!! and thank you, I experiment with most mediums, so I haven't fine tuned any skills yet.

KateTortland In reply to pencilpaperdone [2012-02-11 00:11:02 +0000 UTC]

AHAHAHAHAHA. I hate critiquing art. I usually just say exactly that: OH SO COOL! Or i just say nothing. If I'm forced to for class I can BS it pretty well...but ugh. I should probably start though, considering I'm planning on being an art teacher and will HAVE to critique art....

pencilpaperdone In reply to KateTortland [2012-02-11 00:26:55 +0000 UTC]

haha, its easy, and once you get the hang of it you feel smarter lol. But yeah, we have critiques every single class pretty much, so its getting pounded into my head with a tac hammer.
