CHARMAINE'S OIL PAINTINGS: Fall Road

CHARMAINE ANDERSON>>>>MY ART

I started oil painting about 2005 with the encouragement of my very talented artist friend Viki Whitmer. I was lucky enough to find just the right teacher for me, Susan Ashurst, who worked with me for about 6 months. I would love to find a gallery for the stacks of wonderful paintings she has in her studio.

I see life with the eyes of an artist now, which has improved the beauty of everything I see. I love oils with their forgiving nature and spectacular variety of strong colors. I hope I still have 20 years to improve. I try to paint most days, if not in my studio then in my head.

Years ago an artist friend said her instructer advised her to paint a lot and sell cheap until she was famous. So, that is what I plan to do.
