GIVEAWAY – $100 worth of Art Supply by Arteza

Art has given me my sanity after retiring a few years ago. I cannot adequately describe the joy and pleasure it brings me. When I paint, it is all I am thinking about which is necessary in today’s world of covid 19. I live with my daughter and her family, making a total of seven of us under one roof. During these times being able to win this prize would give my family so much fun and creativity. They are going a bit stir crazy under the covid 19 restrictions of “staying at home.” Winning this prize would give an opportunity to share the pure magic of art.

I am a retired, disabled land surveyor. Every time I would walk into a craft store I would look at the things I couldn’t buy because I was working and didn’t have the time. Every time I would go to a craft show, I would think I can do that. Well now that I do have the time I started paintings, pouring resin, drawing with pastels and generally making stuff I feel inspired to do. It’s been personally rewarding. I have been collecting Arteza paint colors for my paintings and I really like their texture and the way they handle on the different media I employ. I’m actually having fun. Your painting videos have been a big help in my development. I would really like to win this prize .so I can keep on expanding and developing my skills.

Art expresses one’s inner being. The winner of the art giveaway will have more material from which to draw to create the soul’s expression.

To be able to work with art in any way is one that I am forever grateful for. Everyday brings about a different expression, whether it comes in the form of a painted canvas or as a combined drawing and painting. To be able to continue to do so with a set of paints from Arteza would mean so much to me in that I could broaden my horizons further and continue with my artistic growth. I appreciate this opportunity to enter – thank you so much for this.

It’s impossible to know where to start. If it hadn’t been for art, I wouldn’t have made it. My accident took my life away, art gave it back. Finding Peter Dranitsin gave it back. Bob Ross gave it back. I lost all hope when I had my accident. You all 3 saved me. Art is why I am still here. I know that I won a prize once, and I am so grateful. I use every drop as if it were my last. 🙂 Arteza is magnificent, and the only way I can use it, is when I win. I make due with the others, but the brilliance comes from great paint, and I would love a chance to win again!!! 🙂 If not, I hope whoever’s gets it, knows how giving you are, and what an amazing artist, an inspiration you are to everyone who crosses your path. Thank you Peter, for being you. I’ve said it a million times, you are truly my hero!

I’m new to painting. Just started last month. I’ve found something I truly enjoy and I think I’m not half bad at it. When I came across your painting style it blew me away. My paint dries too quickly for me to do what you do. I would like to know what the difference is between what paint I’m using verses what you are using. I’m still trying to figure out what kind of paint I like and what my style of painting is. once I find something I feel comfortable with, that works well for me, I will be sticking with that.
