About Me

My photo
Ohio
I am a pastel painter, living in an historic small town in Ohio, interested in painting people's faces, animals, weathered barns, goodies from my garden, sweet newlyweds as they begin their life-journeys together. This blog is all about pastels and the rich, vibrant paintings they can create, and my journey creating them!
