Smiley Williams
ArtistNo matter the turns and shifts as I grew up, my life was determined in the early years by an uncontrollable curiosity. I understood nothing, but wanted to do better. The world of life and living things was an easy way to ask questions, and continued into early adulthood, but probably to the present day. Somewhere along the way I became an artist.
Without much control over incidents, the world of 3D and 2D work began their affect on me until I began to know less, but feel more. Some of the work on this website are a part of that long and curious process. Others less so.
Oils
I wander in and out of using oils to paint with, even though it is my prefered medium. Gouache is quick and fast drying, so is great to use in the landscape. The lusciousness of oil and its beautiful variety of colours is the best way to paint. I am not a fan of acrylic, but do use it occasionally.
