"Art has been a part of my life since childhood. I loved watching my Dad draw figures and I studied nature to teach myself to paint in my style of realism with a softened impressionistic feel. I draw inspiration from the old masters as well as contemporary artists to grow and develop my body of work. Art enriches my days and gives me the opportunity to express in my own way much joy, beauty of life and appreciation for God's blessings. Whether in my studio in Mountain City Tennessee or en plein air in the beautiful Appalachian mountains and beyond, I always create "Paintings from the Heart ." ~Temple
