I am an artist who lives in West Michigan near Lake Michigan. I love painting sky, water, nature of all kinds. Recently retired from teaching, I have released the repressed artist within me. The opportunity to once again create works of art has been cathartic, as I work to discover my voice and style. I hope each painting evokes an emotional response from the viewer. At one point in life, it was my aspiration to become a professional artist. Now, I have the chance to live that dream and share my creativity with others. I can be contacted at goldenn123@gmail.com for more information.
