I enjoyed my High School Art Classes and wanted to go on and attend the three year program at that time offered at the Worcester Art Museum but fate would have otherwise. After my children were grown my husband suggested that I take a class with William Griffiths who was highly recommended by friends of his. And then it began... Color and Light, Watercolor and Acrylic with Bill. Oriental Brush Painting with Ming Chien Liang , Oil and Anatomy with Alexander Farquharson and sketching in the galleries with George Hancin. I have attended Exhibits, Receptions and many of the lectures of Jim Welu. I have visited many museums in and outside of the country. I am happiest in the art world. - Patricia K. Erickson |
