In kindergarten when it was play time, Rita chose to paint stories and amused her teacher with her humorous imagination. When paint nights came into popularity, Rita got hooked as it reminded her of the fun and freedom she enjoyed as a child with the paints at school.
She kick-started her learning with some one-on-one lessons and since then has also sought out a variety of art workshops in different mediums to further expand her understanding of art and quite simply.....just for the fun of it. She is now excited to learn more from the warm and encouraging Crofton Art Group.
Rita is inspired by the many talented local artists. Her favorite subjects are landscapes and she is drawn to bright, bold colours. She looks forward to more painting with acrylics, learning from others and having fun experimenting with art.
