How I started decorative painting

After returning from the Harper's Ferry Mountain Heritage Arts & Crafts Festival with my first purchased decorative piece, I started a journey to learn as much as I could about Decorative Art.

Immediately, I jumped on the internet searching the web for any information concerning learning Decorative Art.  I found  tons of information which at times seemed to be an enormous challenge just to get everything read.  The information that I pulled from the web was priceless.  I found weblinks for Jansen Art Studio, JoSonja, Maureen McNaughton and many many more.  All of that information gave me my initial entrance into the field decorative painting. 

I started to order books, supplies, brushes, DVD's, pattern packets, wood and even tin pieces hoping to start a rewarding journey into learning and painting.  I ended up with lots of materials but still did not know how to begin painting. 

That is when I started to shoot emails to artists like David and Martha Jansen.  David Jansen is considered a BIG Brush in the decorative art commnity. From their encouragement and recommendation to a local teacher in Virginia, I started my first decorative painting classes.

There have been lots of changes since I started painting around Pampered Palette.  I now am the owner/artist for Pampered Palette (an online resource for the decorative painter/artist, the Heritage MultiMedia distributor for the Washington DC area, teach the Heritage Educational Program, the Ceramic Artist Guild Ambassador to Decorative Painting/SDP and a SDP Ambassador.  I cannot wait to see what happens next. 

Join me for my journey.  I will post information concerning all my classes with photos, the conferences I attend, product reviews and much much more.
