Professionally, Paula Freeman chose law as a career, but her real self is an art supply junkie, which feeds her love of collage. She has a small studio in her home full of art supplies – colored pencils, watercolor pencils, drawing pencils, acrylic paint, watercolor paint, block printing ink, reams of art paper, stamps – the mailing kind, enough to wallpaper a room – and rubber stamps and ink pads, oil pastels, crayons, glitter, paint brushes, sponges, ink and ink pens with various nibs, tape, glue, scraps of anything and everything – rusty nails, wires, buttons, glass – not to mention canvases of all shapes and sizes. Paula’s taken drawing, design, and watercolor art classes from the Glassell in Houston, acrylic and mixed media classes from the College of the Mainland, and mixed media from Olli in Galveston, not to mention several workshops at the Art League. She’s been an active member with the Galveston Art League since moving here from Houston in 2016, and has been juried into several of its shows.
