Susan Schneider
Graphic Designer in Vallejo, CA
I paint weekly from the model with a fine group of painters that meet in a Crockett studio on Thursday evenings. We don't critique each other's work. That is the beauty of it. Because, when all is said and done, as artists each of us has to find our own work. No one else can tell us how to do that. After all the classes, the art schools, the colleges, the workshops, the paintouts to save wetlands and the business of being an artist courses are over, we just have our own paintings to see whether we've got the chops, or not.
