Wildlife and Portraiture in Pastel
| |  |
 | | These paintings are, in truth, portraits. I am drawn to the spirit of these animals. . . whether it is the breathtaking beauty of a newborn colt, the magnificence of an Eland, or simply the wonder my cat expresses while watching for and dreaming of birds. |
 | | I believe that I enjoy painting birds more than any other subject. I am absolutely fascinated by the delicacy, grace and color of these majestic creatures. Most of these paintings are of birds that either breed or winter in the state of California. |
 | | I have been blessed to have had many cats in my life. My partner and I have been further blessed that we had them with us for such a long time. The oldest, our first cat--Ariel--lived to be 21. |
 | | I began my art career as a portrait artist. These works are some of my favorite paintings from the past 30 years. Although my path has taken me in another direction, I still love painting what I call "the landscape of the face." |
