community as a draftsman and designer for 30+ years. Growing up I was taught sewing, crafting and needle arts. Quilting offered a colorful outlet and was a focus of mine for many years. I joined The Drawing Studio in 2020 as a volunteer and found an exciting new world of color and creativity. This painting is one of many I’ve created in the numerous classes I’ve taken there. I’ve named the painting you see on the cover, “Mountain Forest”. Barbara Pearson
ON THE COVER: Mountain Forest , 12" x 17" acrylic on canvas.
