My Art C V
Many of the paintings here are of my favorite places, some whilst on holiday, and some of my favorite places here in north Wales where I am happy to live.
I have had a very hit and miss art training.
A very short time in Rochdale Art School back in the mists of time.
I then was encouraged to "Get a proper job" by my father, so I did my nurse training at Alderhey hospital in Liverpool. I was then married, had a family and forgot about painting.
I was then lucky enough to become an ex pat wife in Hong Kong, where I had time to play. I found a strong art scene there and began life classes with the YWCA.
I have continued to hopefully "grow" and I try to take my painting gear with me at every opportunity.
I exhibit regularly with the Clwydian Art Society; I have had a solo exhibition in Ruthin Library, I had two paintings selected for Patchings annual exhibition in Nottinghamshire where there were only 70 pictures selected nationally for the amateur exhibition.
I had a painting accepted for the Royal Cambrian Academy in Conwy for this year's open and have had several pictures in Theatre Clwyd in Mold also for Open Exhibitions.
I have also exhibited with friends in both Llangollen and Beaumaris on Anglesey. I have paintings in private collections in Hong Kong, Australia and the USA.
These are pictures of some of my happy times. I have enjoyed painting them.
Please enjoy looking at them.
