I strive to capture natural beautyand diversity. Living on the Oregon coast past and present surrounded

by nature provides the opportunity to observe, interact, and learn.

I discovered color pencil in 2010 and have used them exclusively. The ease of use, color variety, and blending have made it possible to achieve a three-dimensional effect, making the picture come alive.

I am inspired by nature and the amazing creatures we share this planet with.

Representing animals as realistically as possible show how extraordinary they are.
