I had no art training until I joined a class in our small village in Oxted Surrey (U.K.) in 2001. Since then I have thoroughly enjoyed learning about water-colour, pastel and oil painting. I have been really been inspired to try these different media by my art teacher. Now with no classes for a few years finding the Challenge sites has been a real boon, I am having a great time. The stimulation one gets from the challenges and the wonderful support from other artists has been fantastic.

Hi Sylvia, I'm so glad to see you in the Challenges. I definitely agree with Jean, you must try The Virtual Paintout. It is so much fun searching Google maps to find your subject.
