My pastel
paintings are an invitation to pause and celebrate ordinary
moments a basket of apples, a summer afternoon, or bright
tulips. An exploration of color and light, these welcoming scenes
are an antidote for stress.
Pastel is
my favorite medium direct, spontaneous, and perfect for
working from life. Theres no mixing or drying time. The
rich, vibrant colors inspire me every time I open the box. As
a commercial artist, I learned drawing, design and discipline.
When I returned to fine art, pastel painting opened my eyes
to the everyday beauty around us.
