This piece is made with oil pastels onto archival cotton papers. It has been varnished. I use colored pencils and sometimes inks before finishing with pastels. The Still Lifes are studies of simple scenes on my kitchen table. I study the light on the lime or the reflection of the bowl. Daily normal tablescapes. Being created indoors gives more time to take in what colors to use and look for the colors in the shadows.
My inspiration comes from Matisse, Picasso and Bonnard

My work is probably best described as Contemporary Impressionism thought my more abstract work moves toward Expressionism. After over 45 years of creating I see my work evolving and actually getting much looser and relaxed. Maybe this comes with age but being able to make marks that are pleasing is my real goal. I rarely totally finish a piece, I don’t like telling the whole story but would rather leave something out for you the viewer to fill in with how you see it.
My studio is in the Southwestern United States, but I travel and paint from all my experiences. Everything seems to influence my work from the vegetables I cook with to the wonderful drawings done by a small grandchild. I love the artists Bonnard, Matisse and Picasso! less
