My husband was ice-climbing so I found a side street in search of color amid somber grey of a winter storm with the idea of painting.This painting was done in pastel on sandpaper. I mounted it on the steering wheel, with my pastels on the passenger seat next to me on newspaper. There was a blizzard outside and in between the wipers going off I was able to draw. There were lots of deer around. They are prized in Ouray, Colorado and are allowed to roam freely as a family, along the white picket fences and old Victorian buildings. The brightly painted houses and fancy trim brightened the bleak snowy day, in a nonchalant way, as if to say "We don't care, we"re happy anyway-let it snow!"

I was born in Quebec, Canada and have been drawing since childhood. I attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania while working full time, and received several awards and prizes there. I moved to Colorado twenty-five years ago to be closer to the woods, mountains, and rivers. My plein air works tend to be rendered in pastel; my studio work, in oils. My subject matter references include sketching in the field, taking notes on color, and photographing what I see. I find that my shortcomings as a photographer are a benefit to me as a painter as they leave more room for embellishment and imagination.
