Artistic background

I started to paint/draw/create various artworks in 2017. I had attended an Art college in Newcastle under lyme Staffordshire in 1987 but didn't contine until many years later. I consider myself self taught as came out of college with nothing of any use! I produce a variety of images using everything but oil, I prefer acrylics or white pencil on black paper for example. I move from strange abstract designs to realistic sketches or a mix of both. I also make air clay toadstools then paint them all individually in abstract designs for my Etsy shop Toadstoolsgalore.etsy.com
