These pieces represent my earliest works in soft pastel,  completed between 2002-2003.

The Light Fantastic was donated to the Lewis County Chamber of Commerce for display and their auction.  Its new owners bid exuberantly, and have given it a fine home.

Coffee and Orchids was requested by Jack Richeson and Co Artists Supplies to represent Yarka-brand pastels.

For My Mother is just that: A piece done of the platter she would allow me to get down out of the "good china cupboard" when I was a child and childishly clumsy, to practice drawing.  All of the practice seems to have paid off:  I nailed that pattern first go.  This piece resides in her home in Alamogordo, New Mexico.
