I think it began when I ate a tube of my mother's prussian blue oil paint. You could say it's in my blood. Dad said I started, while still in the crib, as a muralist using "found materials". Mom introduced me to sketchbooks as opposed to coloring books or....walls. The creative bug has always been there. Growing up in Northern California in the 60's, I discovered the concert posters of the Avalon and Fillmore. I   ...read more

I've been drawing for as long as I can remember, before I knew how to write. I have a twin brother and we used to sit at this little table facing each other and draw, I think that is how I ended up left handed. Anyways, for a long time, almost 40 years. I didn't pick up a paint brush till I was in high school, though. Illustration was always my thing.

Jocelyn Bullock

I have been painting since 1986. As a child I drew all the time and wanted to do Yes album covers(which totally dates me) I attended Maryland Institute College of Art and was very intimidated by the quality of work there. I found oil painting to be completely frustrating. Then a few years later I attended Minneapolis College of Art and Design and felt more at ease with paint.

We are all artists when we are children. I, like most kids, began with fingerpainting and playing with clay. As adolesence kicked in my focus went towards drawing with a pencil or pen. I started college classes for Graphic Design in 1993. I started painting when I was in my early twenties. I changed my major to Studio in 1997 and ended up dropping out of school to paint out in the country setting of middle Tenne   ...read more

Paint, pastel, wax and wool. I love to create, be it a massive 2 metre square canvas taking weeks or an afternoon curled up knitting myself a hat. Colour is my guiding principle. I only have to see a box of paints or a bag of many colours of wool and I am itching to play around with it. It has long been my ambition to discover a new colour that nobody has ever seen before. This might be tricky as I now h   ...read more
