Painting at and wedding felt like a dream.

It was the first time I traveled because of my art (though it wasn’t far, just Boise). I just kept feeling like, “How is this my life?!”. I feel so proud of myself for perusing art all these years. I’ve had to be diligent in making time for art through motherhood. And just look at how it’s paid off! I feel so lucky to be doing what I love.

Benefits of “oiling out” your painting:

- easier to achieve soft edges on an already dry painting
