Vesela Baker, HAVE MY HEART, Acrylic on Wood, 60.00 X 44.00 in, $3,400.00

Acrylic and watercolor are the media of choice for me because of the fast drying process. I continue to learn every day, and my work constantly evolves, as I always have the desire to see things a bit different and in a new way. I like switching between wood and paper, watercolor and acrylic. Because I spend so much time in the studio, that helps me to not get stuck. It forces me to see things from a different perspective and breaks my thought process so I can take a fresh approach. Once in a while, I feel like I have to have some more control and need to slow down so I paint realism.

Vesela is a full time artist working with her husband, Curt from their studio in Chattanooga, TN. She received training in art education at The University of Sofia, Bulgaria.
