Gene's Artist Statement

 

After having spent many years of my life as a wife, mother and elementary teacher, I finally have found the time to do something I have always wanted to do—paint. Making art is an un-ending learning experience. I am in constant pursuit of the techniques I need to translate what I enjoy looking at in order to tell a visual picture. Because I started painting at a relatively “older” age, I know that I will always be learning something more so that I can properly tell my visual “story”.


I have taken classes and workshops with some of the best of Grand Rapids painters such as Jim Markle and Connie Kuhnle and other nationally known artists such as Joseph Fettingas, Arleta Pech and Roland Roycroft.
