Painting

Faye started painting “just for fun”. What started as a hobby has become a small business. Her medium is acrylics, and she paints on canvas, glass and fabric. Although she said she did not have any special training, her work is very well controlled.

Faye takes special orders from customers on whatever they want painted. Serving plates, aprons and canvas rugs are currently on display at Black Belt Treasures. Her turnaround time, depending on the surface, is usually three to five hours.

She said that the most rewarding or enjoyable aspect of her creations that she receives for her work is seeing the satisfied look on the customer or recipient’s face upon seeing her creation.

Besides Black Belt Treasures, Faye’s work is available at The Purple Papaya in Monroeville, Alabama.
