Welcome :)

Since I was a very young, I've loved to travel, and when I discovered oil painting in my senior year of high school (not so very long ago), I thought it was a beautiful and unique way to capture a place.  I wish I had the time to paint from life everywhere I go, but since I don't, working from my pictures or from books I own works fine for me-and it can for you, too.  In this blog, I will share with you the basics of oil painting and how to get started, as well as experiences from the places I've visited and how to make your vacation memories last much longer than the trip. I'll also throw in travel facts, deals I find, tips, pictures, and quotes that will hopefully inspire you to explore the world, too.
