      My statement  
    A Brief Description of My Work Process…

    Using acrylic on canvas, and illustration board, I juxtapose pure design with natural visual elements creating layered effects and textures from bright bold colors to earth tones. I build these layers creating a variety of textures and shapes. I then lay in transparent washes in some areas that create a visual depth and points of interest. I often incorporate gold leaf and other collage items.
    I am also a children's book illustrator. Currently I have four books published and three to be published later in 2008.
