I paint with acrylics on watercolor paper, using the process of layering the paint and scratching back to reveal unique colors and textures in my paintings.
 
Mexican  Pears - an early fun and colorful painting that reminded me of Mexican folk art.  Some of my first paintings were of pears. I love painting pears with their lovely feminine forms and beautiful warm colors. I think beginning painters paint pears because of their easier simple forms and the universal theme of pear still life's through art history. With some of my pear paintings I feel I had beginners luck, perhaps at my happiness having time to pursue my passion showed through.
