"I've learned to recognize that inspiration can come from anywhere. One time it will come from a pair of shoes I see in a thrift shop, the next, perhaps a lobster at the beach. I enjoy a realistic style, but my choice of media is far from traditional...colored pencil on mylar. Unlike paper, which is opaque, the mylar is semi-transparent. I think it gives my work a luminosity I am unable to get with paper. I'm able to apply color to both the front and back of the page to gain a greater color saturation and to add other dimensions in layering. Just as many people draw with a paintbrush, I paint with a colored pencil. "
