I am a 93 year old New Englander but have lived in Colorado for the last 30 years. I have painted since I was a child along with my mother and three brothers. It is only since coming to Colorado that I have painted seriously. I use oils, acrylics, watercolor and charcoal. I have had no formal training in painting but learned only by failure and repetition. Not a day goes by without my making a painting. I find the scenery of the Western Slope inspiring.
