Demonstration:

The demonstration artists for February is Peggy Kingsbury, who is accomplished in painting in oils.  Peggy says:  A native Texan, I hold an associate’s degree in fine art.  In the early 1990s I started selling in galleries while working in the corporate world.  I have happily painted full time since 1888.  Initially a Sunday/hobby, I found the activity grabbed my heart and I was hooked.  Working hard to learn sound principles of  making art, I polished drawing skills, learned the intricacy and complexity of color, and was amazed at the importance of shapes, edges, and composition.  The hard work is a small price to pay.  I paint because I have developed an enhanced way of seeing, because of the awe-inspiring quantity of amount that there is to learn, and because of the camaraderie and encouragement of other artists.  I credit amazing instructors and the exploring of the world of painting with good friends as my primary inspiration.
