Cissy and Minnie
Here are two precious dogs, Cissy and Minnie, sunning on their steps. I finished this 12x9" pastel portrait in September. To order a pastel portrait.

Jan, thank you so much for the portrait of my sweet dogs. I told Mark it's the best present he's ever given me. You are so talented. I'm hoping to have you do a portrait of one of my horses soon.
I live a very simple life in the country. From that solitude, I can devote myself full time to the expression of my art. I find subject matter in the natural landscape around me which is constantly changing with the seasons and the light. Occasionally I express something from a dream or a visualization.
Within the art, I am exploring a rhythm of line and texture, soft blended passages contrasted with impasto brush strokes. I am guided to express a calligraphic dance that is not only interesting visually, but is fun to do.
