Edward Williams always knew he was going to become an artist.

“As a friend of mine told me, I was born an artist the way some people are born with a beauty mark. It’s just a given,” said Williams, sitting on a sofa in his living room, surrounded by his colorful paintings that line the walls of his home in the Paradise neighborhood of Catonsville.

“As a little kid, I always drew,” he said. “When I was in middle school, I took private art lessons from an artist in my neighborhood on Saturday mornings, and that’s when I really started learning to draw from the figure.” Read the rest of Catonsville Times reporter Lauren Loricchio’s story here.
