Shape,
depth, color, and the richness of the world around me inspire me to
create as an artist. I enjoy puzzling how all the pieces fit together
to make the painting or drawing "look" like what I see. I
enjoy drawing reflective objects, people, animals and anything that
grabs my fancy. At the moment I'm experimenting with serious paintings
and whimsical elements to create something that is both beautiful and
enjoyable to view. My preferred mediums are acrylic paint and prismacolor
pencils - but not generally together. I enjoy the feel of a brush moving
accross the canvas, and I love how my pencils blend and combine the
waxy colors to create depth, highlights, and shadows. My pencil work
in particular is different from what I've seen because I blend the colors
until the picture looks more like a painting than a drawing. I rarely
use sketchy lines - I prefer a smoother well blended appearance to my
work. My artwork is usually self explanatory, with small added details
to give the viewer something to explore beyond the main focus of the
piece. I will go where my artwork leads me, but it is my goal to become
a children's book illustrator with my more serious artwork in galleries.
