Leah Fretwell, Halfmoon Bay Member Since November 2017 Artist Statement I'm a self-taught artist. Drawing and painting is my favorite pass time. I love to learn new techniques and keep improving and maybe one day I'll create a masterpiece. I can dream, lol! Acrylic is my choice of media and I also love soft pastel. I started to learn how to paint back in 2012, before that I only sketched with drawing pencils but I wanted to bring my artwork more to life with color and I'm glad I did.
