Who I am

Hi!  My name is Nancy Fretwell, I am an artist residing in Arizona.
I personally strive to not be realistic, which normally emerges because I crave order and rules.
I also take very little in the way of instruction, just the basics, so I learn to express my own heart and being, not just copy someone else’s style.
I love watercolor and glass because they will do what they will do. You can make them be exact like painting watercolor in a dry brush style, or making things of stained glass.  But once you add water or heat they will do what their nature tells them to do… I can only point in a direction and watch as the medium becomes a partner in creation instead of a tool.
