My name is Dori Stickles and I have enjoyed creating watercolor paintings for the past 20+ years. I was also an art teacher for 14 years in Baltimore County Public Schools. My blog is about my artwork and my process as an artist and art educator. My favorite subject to paint is the natural beauty around me. I work from photos primarily and sometimes from a still life.

I take commissions and can work from your high quality photograph. I am also getting back into teaching, but will offer private instruction rather than working in a public school. If you are interested in my work or in taking a class, please email me at dsigndori@gmail.com.
