Pauline Adair – Curriculum Vitae
Hi, I’m Pauline! I’m basically a self-taught artist taking inspiration from classic art as well as modern-day artists…. I live for art. I love to look at it, and I love to create it.
Each and every person has their own personal beauty, outside and inside….. they are already masterpieces of creation! Painting people is how I celebrate humankind and each person’s uniqueness, and I paint people as a tribute to our Creator.
I paint every single day if I possibly can….. I mean to use up all my paints so that I don’t go to my grave with my paintings still inside me!
