Interests I have been practicing pastels from the age of 9. I have drawn ever since I can remember. One day my Mother enrolled me in private pastel lessons. I sold my first painting at the age of 12, and have offered personalized pieces ever since. I have tried my hand at different mediums, but my first love has always been pastels. The velour paper I use has a soft velvety surface that is perfect for portraits. My goal in every painting is to bring to life the spirit of my subject.
