Feedback from Lis Angel
I have always been very interested in drawing and painting and at 12 years of age an art dealer showed me the basics of oil painting. I just loved it and I painted my first landscape in oil.

I was first inspired by the Danish painter Oluf Høst and later I was influenced by abstract art. At the same time I was attracted to poetic and Cosmic art, as the Spanish artist Miro and Russian artist Mark Chagall. …

Ready to Pursue my Dream
Ever since I was very young I had always shown a natural tendency towards things related to art. Because of this, I became a ballet dancer when I was still a teenager. Moviments have always fascinated me and helped me to understand my life and also how human body works, so I do not regret all those years of hard work I had spent to be able to achieve ballet difficult technique even though currently I am not dancing anymore; my background is in classical ballet…

Story by Lori Lewis
I have spent my whole life working in a job that has nothing to do with art but always felt something was missing in my life. As a child I always drew and colored on any surface that was in front of me. As I got older, I became less involved in drawing and painting but still went to museums and collected the artwork of others. About ten years ago, my son became a green beret in the army and while I am truly proud of him, the stress of it is very real. I became depressed and gained weight worrying about the danger he was always in and had to find a better way of dealing with my emotions…
