I will awake sometimes thinking of an animal. And it's not from a dream or anything. It's just in my head. One morning it was a lemur, inspiring five pastel paintings featuring lemurs. Often inspiration for a painting comes from listening and observing.
Falcons were discussed by the children in the art class I was teaching several years ago. One student, in particular, had a love for Peregrine falcons. Once the falcon was in my head, this scene of it in protection mode over an Alice in Wonderland type woman came to me. Sometimes, what I set out to create is not what I end up with. I believe that once the creation process starts, it goes where it needs to go. I love working in pastel, so I felt this was the perfect medium to capture the falcon's face, and the details in the fabrics as well as the clothing. After I completed this piece, I felt it would look best in a child's room offering visual comfort, and a bond to nature.
Here, you can see the falcon has made its presence known in the art.

My love for fashion has been part of my life from a very young age. I love nothing more than drawing the female form in fashion that I envision as well as those that are inspired by clothing designers. Eyes are the window of the soul and each face I create is like creating someone new filled with emotion that I hope connects with the viewer. They are not alive, yet to me in a way they are. I didn't teach myself to draw, I always just knew how to draw from how I see the world as well as from my visual memory. I also create art that focuses on the bond we share with animals in a variety of mediums- pastel, watercolor on paper, and acrylic on canvas. Many times my work will be created using mixed media.
