Annette Braught
While
growing up in a family of artist, I was always working on creating
something. Even though further education was not an option, I never gave
up my dream of painting. I have taken many classes with several local
artist and pastel workshops with Maggie Price, Richard McKinley and
Margaret Evans. When teaching art, I think. It is not necessary to copy a
picture or photograph, but to use it as a reference. It is important to
understand the fundamentals of painting landscapes, values and mixing
color. For that reason I like to teach beginners along with those who
have more experience.
