2024 Map Number: 23

Medium: Pastel Painting

I have been painting and drawing all my life. Earning my first award at the age of 5 years old from the Pasadena Starnews, I received my college education at the College of Creative Studies. I also became a nurse around that time. I love working in pastel — I feel like a kid coloring again. The colors are so lush and you can get great results. I enjoy traveling to fine art festivals and participating and I love to teach, in my studio and en plein air. Please stop by and see my new work.
