Colored pencil has intrigued me, and although I haven’t discovered all the techniques it entails, I have moved on to mixed media, using inks, paint and pastels. My love for illustrations in Children’s literature draws me into this fantasy and perplexing imagery. I want to explore, and explore. Peter Sis, Chris Van Allsburg, Roger Mello are some of my favorite illustrators of Children’s books. I am presently participating in an art tour in Jefferson County, WV and have done for 15 years. It’s called the Over the Mountain Studio Tour. I want to learn more.
