I talked to Artist Haylee McFarlan at the Easton Art Affair 2019.

Tell me about your art. How long have you been doing this?
I have been doing this for about three and a half years. I do mainly animals. It is watercolor and painting on top.
Are you formerly trained?
I grew up artistic. My dad was an illustrator. I picked up stuff from him. I drew on all my notes in high school. I did not go to college for art. Three and a half years ago, I quit my job. My boyfriend and I travel around. He books the shows and I do the art.
Anything else?
Follow what you love doing. Find your own style. Be true to yourself.
