My First Week

Let me tell you a little about myself in the art world. My love for Afghan Hounds led me to start creating. My first medium was ceramic. I learned a lot about ceramics growing up with my mother and her sister who were artist themselves. I wanted to continue growing in my art about 7 years ago and started taking classes and learning to paint in oils. Of course living and raising Afghan Hounds I for sure wanted them to be my subject. Since then I have taken on other breeds as well as cats and horses. Wanting to expand even more I decided to take up Plein Air painting so I could get out in the open and not spend so much time in my studio. I have not given up on my sculpting and have done a few bronze sculptures in the past couple of years. Now brings you to the immediate. 2007. Well I have decided that I should become a blogger. I am hoping you will enjoy this. I will be painting an oil painting a week or more so be sure to keep checking(either in Plein Air or in my studio, using landscapes, seascapes, still life and of course animals as my subjects). These paintings will be added to my blogto which will be available for purchase through Paypal, check or money order or Visa/Mastercard through me. To see some of my previous artwork and bio you can go to my website at: www.terrydchacon.com. I welcome posts and comments. If you have suggestions or paintings you would like to see me paint, don't hesitate to let me know. And please share with your friends. This is new to me and it may take me a few weeks to figure it out. Let's create and have fun!
