In March 2008 I made the suprising discovery that I had a little artistic talent which had been lying dormant all my life. I started with simple still life subjects but as time went on I progressed to more complex subjects.
The only medium I paint in is pastels which I love. They do tend to be messy but I love the immediacy of the work, involving no mixing with turps or water, just pure pigment directly applied and mixed right there on the paper.

I call this one Rocks and Ripples and I entered it into our Fall Show. I was fortunate to win a 3rd place ribbon and even more fortunate that it also sold. Pastel 11 x 14.
