Hello, I'm Delores. I'm excited to be here, teaching what I love! I was an art educator for 30 years, teaching graphic design, fine art, theatrical design and video production. My education took place at college and university, in Manitoba, Canada, and has been honed through decades of graphic design experience and my work as a professional artist, which I have done for over 40 years (eeek!). In the last 15 years I have been involved in art licensing with contracts from Russ, Artwall, Studio El, Patton, Trends, Metaverse, Evergreen and more.
My work ranges through acrylic paint, ink, marker, collage, pastels, pencil crayon, watercolour, and digital illustration and provides many ready paths of self-expression. Once complete, I use this art for pattern design, greeting cards, wall art and many other pieces I sell through art licensing and on products I create for my store, shop.deloresartcanada.ca. I also sell Artist's Resources there and have some free products for you, so check it out and add your name to my mailing list!
The bottom line? I love to experiment and mix both natural and digital mediums to create everything from very commercial work to very non-commercial fine art abstract paintings (and yes, I do sell these, so I guess they are commercial after all). I am here to share that knowledge with all of you in the Skillshare universe, as this has been one of my favourite haunts! I feel privileged and excited to become an online teacher here amongst some real stars in the art world! Please join me in my classes and follow me. I am sure we will have tons of great adventures together (oh my, so cliché)! Anyhow, here we go...
