For the Love of Shakespeare
This is a mixture of acrylic and watercolor paints on paper. This painting came from a photo I took of Anne Hathaway's cottage. A beautiful place, stereotypical of England. My husband insisted I paint it (in hopes I could sell it to tourists). No such luck so far but I have not really explored all the possibilities yet. It is approximately 21" by 15".

Artist Statement
for Jeanne Warren
for Jeanne Warren
I have loved art for as long as I can remember. As a child I could sit and draw for hours and was fascinated by anyone who could master painting anything in a realistic manner. I decided, even then, that this was my mission; to paint as realistically as possible. I wanted to learn that skill and practiced all my life to get there. I have studied art in college but to be honest I have to say what I know has been mainly self taught. It started with crayons as a child, to pencils and colored pencils, to oil paints and then watercolors and acrylics. I have developed my own style, however, by combining acrylic and watercolor paints to achieve brightness and clarity in my work. This technique is relatively new to me (I began painting this way in the summer of 2009), yet is one I enjoy tremendously. I am presently a member of my local art club and am beginning to work on a portfolio to submit to publishers. My goal is to create giclee prints of my originals and sell them.

This Day Last Year
5***** for your lovely building Regards Kerry (accepted)
You have a great talent.
Grace Morai
Love soft green colour.
And love the thatched cottage, Anne's Hathaway's home.
I visited this place during my holiday at S-upon-A.
Many smiles!
Five stars, Jeanne!
Fantistic detail in this English cottage.
Why would you want to sell this masterpiece to a "tourist?" Wonderful color palette, evoking peace, and harmony. Work of this quality deserves a fine archival linen surface. You have wonderful technical skills. May I ask the size of this artistic gem?
