Marcy Graybill

A new creative outlet

I have multiple hobbies in my life. Reading, of course as a library supervisor, books and reading are very important. I adopted my first dog at age 19 and began training her so dog training became part of my life. I learned to sew from my Mom and in college sewed all of my own clothes. My Dad taught me woodworking and one year I made my Mom a corner curio cabinet for Christmas. I came to drawing and painting when I was in my late 20s. I loved the idea of creating beautiful pictures. I started with simple graphite pencil and moved to colored pencil and then watercolor pencil drawings. Since I love dogs often my creations are of my dogs, or my friends' dogs. I expanded to flowers and I have even tried my hand at people and did a portrait of a friend's child.
