The art form I enjoy most is pointillism, having been inspired by French artist Georges Seurat and Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh. Because of the after effects of brain tumor surgery in 2000, I stopped painting with a brush. Instead, I use my fingertips, dot by dot, color by color. I worked on this piece a minimum of 20 hours a week for eight months, or approximately 640 hours. I am a 1972 graduate of the University of South Carolina School of Art. I have loved art since the sixth grade at North Hartsville Elementary School because of a teacher named Mrs. Mary Williams. I am now retired from Darlington County School District and live in Florence, SC.
