“Studio painting is for portraits and still-life. I like the spontaneity of pastels for commissioned portraits and character studies. A commissioned still-life painting becomes a truly personal and meaningful painting, when a client gives me family heirlooms or other favorite possessions to create the still-life arrangement. Colors…rich sunlit colors and painting from life… these are the most important elements of my paintings...
I love working in the pastel medium, their beautiful colors and versatility bring such fun to the pastel painting process. Oil paints, canvas, brushes, easel and a light source. What happiness! I really enjoy painting the nostalgic still-life in oil paints using light and shadow. The shadow holds the painting together, the light gives it life..."
Biography
From the time I was very little, I found such enjoyment drawing and copying the world around me. In 1989 I became an elected artist of the North Shore Art Association, Gloucester.
When I achieved Artist Membership in Academic Artists Association, Springfield, MA, I became a Council Member, then Awards Chairman, and now serve as the President of this wonderful nationally recognized organization.
It is one my most treasured achievements to be named a Connecticut Pastel Society Signature Member.
