Over the years I have enjoyed creating illustrations for publishing, editorial and design markets. I love doing cover and poster illustration because of the storyline inherent in those projects. Grateful for my years at Massachusetts College of Art in Boston where I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a concentration in illustration and broadening course electives in oil painting, watercolor, etching and printmaking. After years exploring the translucency of color of watercolor and the opacity of gouache - technically another watercolor medium- I took to colored pencils. That led me simply and organically to quite literally covering broader ground with block beeswax crayons. There is a translucent layering of color that is enlivening in a very simple and raw way with the beauty of wax based color. Let me know if you would like to work together for an upcoming project or to commission original artwork.
