The beauty of nature is what I consider God's paintbrush! What a beautiful sight to be able to witness such grandeur as a tree just beginning to bud or the first signs of garden vegetables just poking their heads through the soil. To look at the sky and see rain clouds or to walk in the evening and see first hand how the stars are all placed in the night sky and held there by the same hands that cares for us each day. That is true inspiration from nature.
My name is Shelly and I am located in rural West Tennessee. I am a self taught artist although, in grade school, I had the best art teacher that made me feel as though I could paint anything and it was beautiful. She spent many tedious hours trying to teach us color wheels and clay when all I wanted to do was draw. And draw I did. Anything and everything. And my Mom, who also told me to just paint what I feel.
I hope that everyone who sees my artwork takes something away from it. The beauty that God bestows on us everyday is what I try to put on canvas. In this way, I am hoping to not be so concerned with the imperfections of life but to be concerned with the absolute grandness of it.
God bless and thanks for looking.
