"Abstract with Black"
"Outer Space 1"
I arrived in the colored pencil world via the back door, having planned a career in industrial art, but never quite getting there. After retiring from San Francisco to Bouler, CO and casting about for a moveable hobby, I took up colored pencils.
Ten books, a Sedona Elderhostel class and a couple of local workshops later, I fixed up a studio in my garage and began to set aside time to see where colored pencils would take me.
When I discovered Mylar and Dr. PH Martin's Radiant Transparent inks, I abandoned more traditional subjects and techniques as too tedious and time-consuming for arthritic hands and an aging back. Over the last 3 years I've experimented with abstracts. Everybody laughs when they see me moving & talking in overdrive but I believe I am in a race against time while I still have the energy, eyesight and coordination to enjoy my art adventures and to be productive.
