New Digital Artwork

June 30, 2021

There is always something new to learn in art. During the pandemic, I discovered the world of digital artwork. I love the immediacy, and challenge of working on an Ipad with a stylus. I was inspired to learn this new technique by the amazing David Hockney, who began to paint digitally in his 80’s!

Started with a sketch of the subject in black pen ink

Second step was to carve a linocut block with the image and print it with black Akua Ink.

Third technique for same image was to take the black and white print and color it with oil pastel crayons

Palm Trees Series

August 26, 2020

Living in Florida for over 30 years, I have tried to capture the beauty of this graceful tree in many of my works and in many mediums. The palm tree symbolizes the love I feel for living in a warm, tropical climate and waking up most days to sunshine. I lived half my life in northern cities with gray skies, lots of days of rain and snow and early darkness in winter. I appreciate the beauty of the Florida palms and am lucky to have so many examples in my work to date. Here is a small sampling of my infatuation with palm trees over the years.
