Hi Everyone,
My name is April Hensley. I love anything to do with art, any style I love trying out. Though, I usually only paint using heavily textured acrylics or charcoal if I am drawing (which I have just started getting back into).
If I paint it usually is to get some form of emotion out. I had not painted in years until a good friend of mine passed away. It started my Psalm 91:11 series. My style is somewhat unique or at least I have not seen much of it on this site. I can't get enough of texture and colors in painting but I would not consider my work impressionism.And I hardly ever paint in a realistic way but it is not quite abstract either. But it is me. I paint simply because it makes me happy.
My reasons for getting on this site are twofold. One, because I miss the art world and seeing what I can do and what other people can do. And two to honor my friend's memory even in some small way, since he was such an inspiring artist himself.
Thank you,
April
