WaterMarks

My name is Francesca Dripps, and I'm the founder and artist behind WaterMarks. I've been painting in this style since I was 9 years old, and started selling what I paint when I was in 8th grade.
​
I grew up in Massachusetts with my two younger siblings and our parents. Throughout childhood I was always on the artistic side, and loved art class. When I wasn't drawing or painting, I was reading or our playing softball. After my sophomore year, my family relocated to the Chicago are in Illinois, where I spent my last two years of high school. After graduation, I took a break from painting and started my life in Springfield, MO as a freshman at Missouri State University. As of Spring 2017, I am a senior at MO State and will graduate in December with my Bachelor's degree in Hospitality Leadership.
​
While it's still not the same as my childhood home, I've come to love the area. I've made many new friends and had the pleasure of getting to know a wide variety of people.
