Artist, TONY OLDHAM
Although I have dabbled in the arts for many years, I have really developed an interest in painting after taking lessons the past five years from several artists, notably Nancy Troupe and Kelby Love.
From them I found the techniques needed to make a painting really develop and stand out. I have learned one does not fail in any one effort but it only presents the opportunity to correct the obvious. That is the challenge and road to success. I primarily love to paint animals in oils on hardboard but I am now starting to change my mindset and look towards other subject models to expand my art world. I find it both relaxing and challenging to merely paint for myself and I gain a personal sense of satisfaction upon completion of each art piece. I became a juried member of the Arizona Art Alliance in 2016 which now allows me to expand my universe of sales and show opportunities, in addition to showing my work in the Westbrook Village Fine Arts Association Annual Fine Arts Show.
