About Me
- Dollie
- I am a native West Virginian, born and raised in Greenbrier County. I left West Virginia after graduation from high school, and returned for my husband's retirement. I studied oil painting under the tutelage of Marilyn Farrell of Lamb’s Gallery in San Jose, California, from 1981 through 1983. After leaving California in 1985, I put aside my painting for 25 years while I pursued other interests. Recently, I started seeing beauty everywhere that I needed to capture in oil paintings. I enrolled in some adult education programs to get me started again. The adult education instructors reawakened dormant skills from my earlier training, and enhanced those skills with new knowledge. My current instructor, Sasha Williams, aroused my interest in the "Painting A Day" phenomenon and encouraged me to join her and other artists in a show at a local coffee shop.
