I loved the challenge art gave me. I loved taking a flat piece of paper and turning it into a 3-D image and found out that I wasn't that bad at it either.
Life got in the way after graduation and I put away my supplies away and didn't touch them again until 2010.
October 2010 I rediscovered the wonder of creating art. From October 2010 - 2013, I continued my art journey and started to explore different mediums.
My first medium to explore was in September 2011, when I discovered artist quality Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils. "Playing with Marbles" is the first serious piece I created with them and "Mesmer_Eyes_er" followed shortly after. I love the smooth feel and control I have with the Prismacolor Pencils.
In February 2012, I started to explore Watercolors again and found that I still love them.
In March 2012, I picked up the Pastel Pencil using the Faber Castell PITT Pastel Pencil as my choice.
I explored soft pastels in the form of Rembrandts in August 2012.
Health played an active role in not working with my art from 2013 - Dec 2018 with the exception of finishing a commission for a very patient and understanding customer in 2017.
In 2019 I started getting serious about my artwork. Mostly honing my skills in Colored Pencils on different types of paper and discovering different techniques that work for me.
I continue to strive to create realistic portraits that capture the personality and character of whatever I am drawing.
