First Blog

Hey, I'm Amie.
I'm fairly new to this blogging situation, it's quite interesting. I had a very difficult time thinking about what to write in my first official blog. How does one really start this kind of thing off?

I'm one of those starving artist types, just looking to get my artwork out there. I have done a few projects from murals to smaller side projects. There are so many ideas that run through my mind on a regular basis, I wish I could get them on canvas.

I generally work on canvas with acrylic paint. Recently I have been trying out the whole watercolor world, it's more difficult than i had imagined. I was taught the basics back in high school art classes but it clearly didnt stick in my memory. I can't seem to use the colors as diluted as I'd like.

I will post new pictures soon.

The elevator June-Sept 2008

This is my first mural I painted in an elevator shaft. It took me over 4 months to finish.
