Paula Hayes

I am Paula Hayes, a watercolor artist and owner of Paula Hayes Artistry.  I specialize in atmospheric landscapes but also enjoy painting cartoon and storybook characters, lighthouses and whimsical animals.  I strive to present my work in creative and original ways, ever mindful of the magic of watercolor and how the process provides a quiet place of refuge beyond the daily chaos and chatter of everyday life.

My visual influences have been from my personal travels and hiking, drawing inspiration from my photographs and memories of special places.  As with my paintings, I am very much a “work in progress” as I strive to learn, grow and share my works with others.

My goal as an artist is to connect to others, to tell a story with color, texture and scenes that will resonate with viewers.  Ultimately, my wish is that my love and passion for watercolor art is evident in each piece I create.
