Hi Robin!! Omg, what a summer it has been :) Just now back to AFABW to find your messages. And I see your art expanding from ABQ. So happy you got to see Dana and family. Oregon was BEAUTIFUL! Will email you a fun musical pic show of our adventures. Just get my addo from Jen or Derek to request it :)
Yes! It was at Dana's baby shower for my grandson Hunter that we met. btw, Godmother Jennifer just spent some lovely days with Dana and Hunter in Oregon, where he's in a summer program.
WOW! That makes your stuff all the more amazing - like drawing with your toes!!! I had the same experience with a tablet, that's why I don't do much digital stuff except photoshopping my color-pencil drawings. I KNOW I can't do it with my toes! LOL
I'm working on expanding my scene a little - doing giclee prints, selling in galleries a little, doing some commercial work - whatever it takes to prosper!
Howdy, Ma'am! I was thinkin' of you too- I see lots of new images in your portfolio - they look great! What do you use for your digital images? Do you have a tablet, or do you just use your mouse? Looks like fun.

Brief Bio
I am not a "professional" artist like many on this site.
I began my career as an artist at age 4, as a kindergartener, with a portrait of my Saint Bernard, “Bandit” in finger paints.
I attended art classes in public schools since but never more than a semester of college.
I, like most artists that I know, went through various “phases” throughout life as an artist; “Fashion” from age 7 to 10, “Cat’s” in pencil from ages 10 through 16, “Trees’ (and portraits) in pencil from age 16 to 19, watercolors from age 19 to 22 then pastels from 22 to 46.
And then, finally, I dared trying out drawing digitally.
I love to draw digitally, I guess because it most closely resembles watercolors and soft pastels (but without the mess AND - you can just paint over!!)
I like to duplicate images that "move" me in my own life and attempt to get some small message across to the viewer that opens him or her up to contemplating “what does this image mean?”
