    When it comes to visual art I used to be just an eager spectator. Over years of dabbling – doodling and playing with colors, particularly chalk pastels, I eventually have been surprised to make some that I really like. I'm very glad to share it!

    Pastel Explorations

    I've come to love the vibrant depth of chalk pastels. Here are a few favorites. I drew them by hand, mostly using NuPastels on various kinds of paper. In some cases I applied simple digital effects, like contrast exaggeration which I mention in the descriptions.

    Partings Collage

    Gathering with friends at the home of one who had been doing collage for years, we spent an evening creating our own collages. I came up with this collage informed by sadness, having recently parted from a several-year romantic relationship.

    Learning Figure Drawing

    Some pastel or pencil sketches from my venture into figure drawing via a 2005 five day class.

    Inkscape Experimentation

    Experiments using a free structured-graphics drawing tool, Inkscape .
