What is the best thing about being an artist?
Jenny Buckner: The best thing about being an artist is waking up every day and being excited about my job. It encompasses all my passions: photography, working with my hands, nature, the outdoors, color, design, and light. I can use all these, to tell you about my world, in a painting.
