Adding paint to the material with which to create, Frances has been exploring methods to be creative for most of her life. Educated in Early Childhood Development and Music, painting instruction has been gained through classes and workshops, and a lot of trial and error. Watercolor has become the paint of choice, offering the opportunity to reflect on the beauty of the rural community.
