About this user

Who am I? and what am I all about?
Hi my real name is Rose. The name Sketchart26 I come up with as my first ever ID in a art forum. Since then I've become quiet well known by the name in many different art associations. I was born in 1971, married young had two wonderful children and later divorced. These days I remain single and devote my time to looking after my children, animals and paintings. I live in Australia and operate out of Melbourne, Victoria.

Where it all began
I first become interested in the world of art, when my cousin asked me to enter a competition with her through, The Art Training Institute located at 134 136 Highfield Road Camberwell, Australia back in 1985. It was at this time in my life, I discovered that my artistic ability showed great potential for Commercial Illustrating, after being awarded with an Entrance Certificate and guarantee for passing the entrance examination with honors. Although I did nott go on to study at The Art Training Institute, as unfortunately could not afford it, I continued to draw my little sketches at home.

It was not until recently that I began to take my art seriously when I joined an art forum called Simply Painting in March 2007. Where I painted along side Frank Clarke a well known artist from Dublin with his free painting Lessons. As I painted I began to see the same potential I had back in 1985. When I posted my first painting in the forum I received many wonderful comments both positive and negative in regards to my work from artist all around the world. They were all so encouraging and surprised that I had, had no formal training in art. As a result I began to wonder what my work would be like if I had the opportunity to be trained. I began to search for a place to learn to paint. It was at this time that I meet Jan Van Fucht my Teacher. Jans work has been displayed in many galleries and has had many one man exhibitions in Australia. He has become my inspiration as he continues to teach me his techniques in oil painting. Since meeting Jan and being influenced by Jan it has become my hearts desire to paint. I studied under Jan for six month at which time I had to leave due to other commitments.

Since this time I have continued to paint and sketch every day teaching myself through videos, books and online tutorials. After some time I even started my own Art Forum called Woody Art and Things.

Now days I run two shops on Zazzle. One is for my actual paintings and the other is for my reference photos.
