City GirlMy favorite medium is colored pencils. I like the control I have when drawing with a pencil and the blending capabilities of good materials. I use Derwent products and permanent Ink.

Abstract drawings are so much fun to create and have become my favorite pastime.  Being free to experiment with lines and making a variety of faces and designs for backgrounds is satisfying for the soul!  I have a small archive of pencil drawings and the subjects so far are music, horses, people and nature.

This piece is called “City Girl” which was inspired by one of my visits to Broadway in NYC. I used to hop the train from New Jersey to see plays like Miss Saigon, Phantom of the Opera, Cats etc…  I sketched this out in NY ~Penn Station.
