I am a Colorado artist working primarily in soft pastel.

 

Real-world subject matter is my usual starting point. I look for the things that make me laugh, do a double take or fascinate me because of their beauty. My subject may be as complex as a landscape or as simple as a single piece of fruit. 

​

My interpretation leans toward abstract. Shapes and patterns attract me. I use composition, color and technique to communicate the meaning and emotions that struck me and hope that I create a memorable visual experience for the viewer.
