Pastels & Oils

Welcome to my website.  I hope you enjoy a little peek at my life through my drawings and paintings.   It was my mother who inspired me at a very young age with her tiny, miniature, landscape paintings.  So armed with a "Learn to Draw" booklet and her encouragement, I practiced drawing all through my school days, until I about had the book memorized.    I'm still learning today and enjoying the journey.    Many times we rush through our daily lives, and take for granted the wonderful things around us.    I try to capture that.   A moment in time, that might not be here tomorrow.     I try to love, live and enjoy life and bring a smile to your face.
