Gerilyn Gordon Gaskill Now that I've finally retiring from work, I have begun my real career - painting. It's my passion. I've always said my work supported my art interest. I've been painting seriously with watercolors for the past three years. I find Painting can be fun, relaxing, enjoyable, meditative, exciting and audacious depending on settings and my mood. You never know what happy surprises evolve in your paintings. I just love to paint.
