I've managed to grab an hour or so to sort out my page and thought I should introduce myself! I am Alison from the Wirral, UK (just across the water from Liverpool) and am 30 years old. I spend my days stuck in a hideous office working away for peanuts and spend my free time painting.
I have (finally) managed to upload an avatar! Taken weeks to get round to doing that. Also started listing some of my art work for the world to see! I have only recently started painting again after a long break........
I studied art at college and then university and graduated hating it! Being forced to produce work that your tutors rated but, you didn't felt like a waste of my time. I only got my paint brushes out again to make some miniature paintings to go onto greetings cards........
Then in january this year I painted a card for my Dads birthday and I thought 'that's not bad' and since then I have been slowly experimenting and finding my feet again!
