Artist Profile

I enjoy the outdoors and spend a lot of time there, so the landscapes where I travel, hike, and bird are an obvious source of inspiration.  These large (28x41 inches) drawings below represent recent work and are drawn on paper with watercolour crayons- with no water.  I started with pencil crayons, but found them too limiting and fell in love with the vividness and blending ability of watercolour crayons.
