Hello There!

My name is Tait, pronounced Tyt.

I am a self taught artist living in Los Angeles with my husband, two daughters and son.

I started daily painting in May of 2020, with no prior art experience.  I set out to prove that creating art is a learned skill. I created art daily and posted it to social media to document my experience and progress. I saw my self improve and grow. I had an opportunity to sell and exhibit my work and met so many great experienced and novice artists along the way.

After over two years of creating a piece of art everyday I decided it was not a sustainable practice for me. I took some time reevaluate my goals and decided to really focus on improving my skills in hopes of one day creating art with a capital A.

Though two years of daily practice, art has become part of my daily life. So instead of daily painting I am daily art-ing. This means that I engage with art in some way every single day. Some days I might do a three hour alla prima oil painting other days it might be a quick sketch in my sketchbook or a visit to a museum.

Thank you for stopping by to take a peek at my work. I hope that it will show you that with deliberate practice you can to can improve!

All Good Things,

Tait Preis, Artist
