Micron Pen: Black and White
A grounding part of my art practice is work in Micron pen. I can trace the arch of my career and life by the evolution of these drawings over time. Each piece starts with a line or a movement observed in nature. They are intricate expressions of life ebbing and flowing from the arch of a single beautiful line.
Pastels
The works in this collection are done in Sennelier soft pastel, and, unless otherwise noted, painted on sanded pastel velvet. Unless otherwise noted, these are pieces that have been painted au plein air using a proprietary technique that I call Ambient Observation.
Pastels: A Love Letter to America Collection
In 2025, I began a project titled, A Love Letter to America. When completed, it will be a compilation of 50 paintings, one from each state in the US. I have traveled to most of the states to paint and each piece represents a snapshot of the majesty of our beautiful country. All of the paintings are done in Sennelier soft pastel on specialty sanded pastel paper. Each is painstakingly blended by hand to produce a misty, soft picture of a countryside loved by its people. This project asked the question, " What do we value? Will we do what it takes to preserve and protect the wild and natural places that serve all Americans as a transforming spiritual force? Each piece, unless otherwise noted, is painted au plein air using a proprietary technique called Ambient Observation.
