This is a watercolor painting that I painted in my art class at school. I chose this scenery because of its beautiful sunset and it gives me peace looking at it.

Artist Bio: Tell Us Your Story
My name is Hailey Lamca and I am 19 years old. I was diagnosed with a brain tumor when I was 12. It’s been a difficult journey these last 7 years but I’ve worked hard to overcome the challenges and graduated from high school last year and I’m now taking some college classes at my local community college so I can become a preschool teacher’s assistant. I’ve always loved painting and I continue to take art classes so I can learn new techniques and improve as an artist.
