I have my own personal style that has evolved from classic techniques. I paint in oils on stretched canvas - but with an energy that has little patience for traditional preparations. I like primary colors, the contrast of shadows and light, but that¹s just the style. My friend tells me I don't paint with my wrist, I paint from my elbows. My subject matter is varied, but as a student of human nature, I am always fascinated with portraiture and have been commissioned many times over the years to paint a face and agesture; to capture that person on canvas, and am best known for myexpressive and insightful portrait oil studies. But I also am drawn to the colorful landscapes of Mexico and have developed a series of paintings from my own photographs of the beautiful cities I've visited there. I continue to produce all my work in my studio in Pasadena, California where I live with my husband, our dog and my big brushes. | |
