I come from a family of creative people. I have always considered myself a creative dabbler. Now the time has come for me to make it a full time job. I am going to be researching artists and attempting to create a piece of art in their style. I will choose a new artist monthly and post what I am learning. At the end of the month, I will post my final piece of art.
I recently gave birth to my third child whose namesake was a great artist (my grandfather, Lucien Day). Baby Lucien is 9 years younger than his closest sibling. I feel like I am starting over. I don't want to go back to work outside the home and I want to do something different that makes me happy and maybe others too. So here I go, finding my art.
