I am a retired graphic designer who has loved painting my whole life. In fact I finally saw the Van Gogn Museum this month after seeing his paintings for weeks as a 5th grader taking art class in Portland, OR.
I started with Pennsylvania Dutch designs on birdhouses, started formal oil painting classes, went to the Las Vegas Painting Convention several times and missed my chance to teach there when my back went out this year.
So I am a fine art painter moving more and more into acrylics from oils and a inventive craft painter of Birdhouses, trays, plates, boxes and more in a variety of styles. I invite you to check my store out.
I also write a blog covering a variety of ideas about art and the design of living. Please visit and comment. Krugsstudio.etsy.com
