# About me
I'm retired and have always loved dabbling around in various forms of art. As a teenager, I mainly drew both cartoon characters and the "learn to draw" sketches on the matchbook covers. I never took an art course in school (now I wish I had). In the mid-70's I went to a night class in Tole Painting. I loved it, but working in oils and having to use turpentine made my migraines worse, so I had to give it up (sigh!). I've always had to be surrounded by color, so after marriage I stuck with my needle arts (embroidery, crochet, knitting and then quilting). After retiring I took a water color night class, but it just wasn't my "thing". Acrylic paints seem to fill my need for color and "no smell"! I know that there is a new odorless brush cleaner for oils, but I thought I'd start with something less expensive. So far I've just been learning from tutorials, but I hope to post something soon.# Comments

Thank you ... I love the picture of the chimp! I'm sorry I'm so late in replying, but we were out of town and then I got busy with the chorus I direct and haven't been paying too much attention to anything else.
