Why watercolor you may ask?

Watercolor paintings have a transparency and glow other mediums do not have. It's a medium that allows soft edges and colors that flow into each other as well as hard edges.

Watercolor does not require a lot of preparation, wasted paint or clean up work, like other mediums do.

It's painting medium that allows for spontaneity and self expression.

I am Anika McFarland and grew up in a small town in Northern Germany. I live now in the USA and am an American.

Painting was always one of my passions. Though I went to college for architecture and am currently in that profession, I never lost my passion for the visual arts. It is something that gives me something to look forward to, every single day. It's relaxing, fun and takes my thoughts off everyday worries.

I had some formal training in college, though I consider myself mostly self-taught. I do sell my paintings and have an Etsy shop for this.

There is rarely a day going by when I don't paint.
Thus I know through experience what does work and what doesn't.

I believe creativity is one of the things that makes us human. I believe in a world in color, in ideas, in innovation. Creativity is just a start. One outlet to start your ideas, color your world, help you to visualize beauty is to paint.

Together we can make this world more beautiful, more innovative and better.

Let's paint this world more beautiful for everyone!
