Hello Art Lovers
I am a self taught poetic artist, or Fine Folk artist, if you will,
as i have been called by some wonderful art teachers, artist, and a museum curator. I have a nice group of collectors that i am working on growing to a larger sum so that i may support myself by doing what i love...creating art.
I opened my own art studio for six months The Whitmore Art Studio funded by myself. The studio is currently closed as i am trying every attempt to reach out and ask for assistance with funding. Something i find hard to do. I have shown in galleries from Florida to Texas and really love the freedom art gives me when working for myself. My paintings have grown into the poetry I used to write. My creations are usually acrylic on canvas/drop cloth, collage, and doll making. I am getting into sculpting a combination of wood and fabric. I have painted one mural and I fell in love with it. My ideal would be to just be labled a powerful woman creator. Powerful? Indeed.
I am originally from Topeka, Ks. then lived in several states. Landed in Lakeland, Fl. for 15yrs and now home is Fort Worth, Tx. I love Big Texas.
You can find me on the web on a few unfinished websites because i would rather paint. Yet, I know the time has come for me to manage these things once and for all.
Please visit http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/reopen-the-whitmore-art-studio-create-or-die and help to reopen my studio. The studio allowed me to employee five people two sales persons, a creative director, and local artist. I need your help to open and continue to be a thriving part of the community i live in. Thank you.
