About the Artist

 

 

Delores Purdy Corcoran

"I have always loved art, any form of art. I took lessons from a local professional watercolorist and moved on to teach myself different techniques. Art is more than a creation on paer/canvas or other surfaces, it is an extension of the soul. I enjoy the depth that can be achieved in watercolor unlike any other medium. I also enjoy gourds and have studied the Mound Builders, making masks found within the mounds. Each gourd has it's own personality and spirit. Thank goodness I have an understanding family that shares my passion and cheers me on when I am creating!"
