Several years ago, after returning from the Harper's Ferry Mountain Heritage Arts & Crafts Festival with my first purchased decorative painted piece, I started a journey to learn as much as I could about Art.

Immediately, I jumped on the internet searching the web for any information concerning learning Decorative Art.  I found  tons of information which at times seemed to be an enormous challenge just to get everything read.  The information that I pulled from the web was priceless.  I found weblinks for Jansen Art Studio, JoSonja, Maureen McNaughton and many many more.  All of that information gave me my initial entrance into the field of decorative painting.

I started to order books, supplies, brushes, DVD's, pattern packets, wood and even tin pieces hoping to start a rewarding journey into learning and painting.  I ended up with lots of materials but still did not know how to begin painting.

That is when I started to shoot emails to artists.  One artist is considered a BIG Brush in the decorative art commnity and with their encouragement and recommendation to a local teacher in Virginia, I started my first decorative painting classes.

There have been lots of changes since I started painting around Pampered Palette.  I am the owner/artist for Pampered Palette (the premiere online resource for the decorative painter/artist), we stock and sell the DecoArt Americana, DecoArt Traditions, Jo Sonja Acrylics/Mediums and Maureen McNaughton Arts product families in the Washington DC area, teach decorative painting classes, the Ceramic Artist Guild Ambassador to Decorative Painting/SDP and a SDP Ambassador.  I cannot wait to see what happens next.

Join me for my journey.  I will post information concerning all my classes with photos, the conferences I attend, product reviews and much much more.

The fascinating world of Peter Ompir.  Peter was one of the founding fathers of Decorative Painting in the United States.  Peter along with Werner Wrede and John Dunn made a huge splash in the art world and continue to do so as many individuals collect the Ompir style of painting.  I personally have over 400 pieces (Ompir, Wrede, Dunn) in my personal collection as that is one of favorite styles of art.  Join us on a fascinating journey into the world of art with Peter Ompir, Werner Wrede and John Dunn.
