Female Textures

I have created a variety of textures by making a rough surface with pastel emulsion.

After I prepped the paper with emulsion, I let it dry. I painted the figure using charcoal, pastels, ink, and collage. The finished painting has a sculptural quality.

Whiteface Mountain Chinese Style

This was painted during the Adirondack Plein Air Festival.

 I used an ink calligraphy pen and watercolors on an Aqua Board.

Whiteface Mountain is truly amazing!

Flower Collage

I have often been asked about my process for creating collages. I tend to work intuitively and see what evolves. In the photos below I knew I had to sort my materials and finish collages I had started. I dumped everything on the floor and got to work! As you can see, I had helpers!

Male Nude Ink Drawing

This figurative drawing is on Arches cream drawing paper.

 I like the color and texture of the paper.

Also, it takes light washes nicely.
