I've been an artist since someone gave me crayons in the early years and told me not to write on the walls. I've done mixed media, watercolors, ceramics, mosaic art, sketching, oil painting, acrylics and encaustics. It wasn't until I was forced into retirement by the sale of my company where I worked to support my art supply habit that I found pastels and other mediums. I began researching art by looking at you tube for artists good at what they do and willing to share how they do it.. I've taken workshops, watched artists demonstrate on you tube, read books by Edgar Payne, Kevin McPherson and many, many more and  took to heart Carol Marine's suggestion that an artist needs to paint daily to become accomplished. It's the painting a day that led to the website, Azcrazyart.com at Daily Paintworks because what in the world do you do with a painting a day after 30, 120, or 365 days?

Art is between you and me and I hope my art brings joy!
