I'm a painter using oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastel, and more. Watch me paint on YouTube at @artiststacycbottoms. I started painting at a young age after visiting an art museum for painting lessons. My grandparent's farm provided the inspiration for my landscapes and transportation art. After high school I joined the Marines for tuition, and I became a rifle range instructor. That's when I realized how much I enjoyed teaching.
Years later I completed my M.A. in Museum Studies from Johns Hopkins University. The Hickory Museum of Art has exhibited my paintings and I exhibit my art online. I've also created art for a published children's book. I enjoy teaching art and I was voted Teacher of the Year in 2015. In 2016 I was named the Fine Arts Educator of the year for my county.
I teach painting classes online so contact me if you want to improve your art. When I reflect on my work, I realize that artists see the world differently and being an artist is a blessing. I enjoy the painting process and I want to thank those who have purchased my originals and prints over the years. Painting really is like keeping a diary. I've learned that having your art exhibited in a museum is nice but exhibiting my art online is more fun.
