My work begins, always, with drawing: Ink or pencil on paper, old fashioned and direct. Drawing is a dance across a page, one I love and use to explore, to learn, to experiment, to see and continue to see, see more, see better what is all around making up life and experience of the world. Much of my work comes initially from my many sketchbooks, but just as much is studio work, straightforward work on paper using ink, pencil, watercolor pencils, acrylics, inks, gouache, etc. I work in series, using a central theme to inspire and collect my ideas and the work. I use both painting materials and techniques and freehand digital color to enhance and finish my drawings. My series include natural creatures, floral designs, still life subjects, landscapes, abstracts, an International collection of work from my travel sketchbooks and a well-known Philadelphia series of famous sites and favorite places.
My work is available for Healthcare facilities and Corporate offices, as well as for individual purchase. I accept commissions and am happy to work with special requests.
