About Dorren:
I have always liked art since childhood. Being a medical lab technologist for many years, I
find my art is a great way to destress and I have no concerns about what will fill my retirement years. I love watercolours, collage and mixed media. I find it exciting to try new techniques. At this time I am addicted to artist trading cards as I am constantly challenged to learn and experiment.

How does this work?

About Heather:
Homeschooling mother, author, and marketing assistant from Oklahoma, USA. For me, art is an escape from the ordinary. Engaging my creative side through visual art is a relaxing and playful experience for me. When my work can be used for something positive it’s even better.
