JAN DESWIK ARTS

I had taken along a kid's box of 8 colors and a small tablet of paper. I thought that since I'd want to be out of the sun for a couple hours at noon, and since there is a limit to the number of novels I can read in one sitting, I'd play with the watercolors, not realizing that it was both fun and addictive... She sent my sister-in-law, a textile and craft artist, shopping. Well, it was the best of gifts, and one thing just lead to another. I will now paint on almost anything. I've used watercolor or acrylic on paper, canvas and have also painted on cigar boxes, glassware, coolers and a moose antler... For additional fun, I like the concept of cartoons. Especially those that work off word play or bad puns, (as if there were any other sort of puns).
