Inspiration and motivation to draw and paint has held a constant thought process and need to create since very young. Haines continues to create, sketch, and produce paintings from subject matter that sparks her interest and imagination. She refers to painting as her "release without boundaries"...a challenging time outdoor experience or quiet time within her studio where she spends many hours working out some magical imagery to produce a new, exciting 'happy experience'. Natural surroundings provide groundwork for capturing a group of shapes or fleeting light effects that inspire ideas and impact for successful results.
Haines joins watercolor societies to benefit from the sharing of ideas and inspiration from other artists. Each year, she submits digital images to be juried into art competitions within these groups. She is a member of the Mid-Southern Watercolor Society (MSW); a signature member with the Artists of Northwest Arkansas (ANWA); the Transparent Watercolor Society of America; and the NorthEast Watercolor Society (NEWS).
Her latest accomplishments include acceptance of three paintings at the lst Annual Area Art Exposition, Batesville, Arkansas. She was awarded with First Place $300 Award and also was honored with the $500 Puchase Award from the Citizens Bank of Batesville.
