Marie Stephens encourages us to know it's ok to make mistakes. She said, in fact, some of my best discoveries came from what I thought were mistakes! The key to good art, is to simply, begin....creativity is a result of starting. 3. Creating art is great practice for positive self talk, and being in the moment...especially en plein air.

A few pillar moments in Marie art journey. 1. When a child told me, "You're like a real artist!" it was then that I really started to believe it. 2. My first art gallery showing 3.my first solo exhibition at a local gallery 4. The first time I painted in public 5. When I discovered how exhilarating it is to be able to paint while your husband is driving you cross country!
