Acrylic by Rena ShearSize: 30x30About Rena ShearI started painting in watercolor for about 10 years, and took many other classes before moving to acrylics. In between I learned about monoprint, ceramics, handmade books, drawing, and collage. I'm always inspired by nature, and sometimes I feel painting is a good opportunity for expressing emotions.
