I am Cynthia Lee Schaum, a Software engineer by trade, MMORPG enthusiast, parrot and cat lover the rest of the time. Currently playing Guild Wars 2 and absolutely loving it! Shelved Lord of the Rings Online, Star Wars: The Old Republic and the original Guild Wars, after a long history with World of Warcraft, Warhammer Online, City of Heroes, a bunch I can’t even remember, and Everquest II and I, and to really date myself, MUDs such as Abandoned Reality and Forever’s End . Proud mama of Bandit the Nanday Conure, Merlin the Bronze-Wing Pionus, two wonderfully extraordinary cats, Nekoka and Sassafrass, and last but not least, my son Anthony.
Tony gave me the Wazeau handle when we got our first internet dialup connection back in the olden days. I’ve loved animals and especially birds my whole life. He was taking French in school. He is a very bad speller. Hence Wazeau instead of Oiseau. Pronounced Waz-OH!

Wazeau's Watercolors 
You do such a good job working in the Watercolor for Dummies demonstrations. I started wc painting 3 years ago and have been away from it for 6 weeks. I’m looking online to try to get my motivation back after several deaths in the family. I wish my demonstrations from the book looked as good as yours.

I’m sorry for your losses. Thank you for your positive comments! Playing with watercolors is helping me get back the feelings I had when I was growing up. I hope you find what you need in the same way.
