Artist's Statement:
I've been attending Life Drawing Sessions for over ten years. My first drawing at the session is a controlled classic drawing carefully rendering the subject in pastels. For the next several poses I playfully express the figure and have fun with color and design. These works are all on paper. Sometimes I gesso the paper or use some acrylics and then I work over the prepared paper with oil crayon, ink, watercolor, and pastel. I have included some watercolor abstract paintings as well, which are done on Arches (140 lb) watercolor paper.
