Growing up, Artist Helen Parker loved to paint. Her favorite childhood memory is painting with her mother. This led Helen on a path to the world of art. As a young adult, she went to art school and instantly knew she wanted to make this her life’s work. Helen received her fine arts training at Laguna College of Art and Design and is currently based in Los Angeles, CA. She is taking a break from her travels and learning to live in the city and find inspiration through her current surroundings. Helen’s favorite medium is watercolor. “I love when the colors flow into each other and create new washes.” Helen draws much of her inspiration from nature. In her free time, Helen enjoys hanging out with friends, walking on the beach, and getting lost in a book.
