Interests and Personality

BiographyI am Carolyn Shaw. Artist and Art Teacher. I work in all medias subject matters, styles, and techniques. I do everything from fine art,to murals and caricatures. My speciality is portraits. I love it because of the complexity and because there are no two faces the same. I like to capture the inner beauty of my subject. I owned and operated the art concession at MovieLand Wax Museum in Ca. I have also done portraits at Knotts and all the other So. Ca. parks. Although almost intirely self-taught I have had the privilage of studying with such notable artists as Robert Wee, David Halbach, Diane Neville, Gary Jenkins and others. I have taught painting since the early 70's. I love it. Having taught myself I know what my student are going through what they need to learn and can save them years of trial and error and frustration. My students consistently win the ribbon. My studio is in Hesperia Ca. mail tutoring is available carolynjoyce1st@yahoo.com
InterestsI am a single mother of 6. one daughter and 5 sons. My youngest twin sons are in the Navy. I live in the high desert in Ca. I have an artstudio-classroom where I spend most all my time painting. There is a patio adjacent with rose garden and fish pond very serene and peaceful nice atmosphere. for painting.
MusicI love all good music, very fond of guitar. Still like rock, old and new.
TelevisionI love Dancing With The Stars, Fond of all the CSI and the forensic shows, I like psyc-dramas and thrillers love Dexter
BooksI read suspense novels . Spend most of my time painting or on the computer where I am working on a manuscript.
HeroesI had a hero once. He was my son Robert. He died valiently of aids at the age of 34. He led a Straight but reckless life before the danger was known.

Nice work Carolyn. I also am self taught and enjoy doing portraits. I am sorry to hear about your son. I would expect that a teachers life can be very rewarding as you watch your students progression.
