My intent is to reach beyond the surface using pastel, my favorite medium. Whether using a delicate technique on a textured surface, building layers of rich color or refining detail with pastel pencil, I am continually exploring pastels versatility.

My desire is to capture that emotion that connects us to the people, places and experiences we most cherish.
