Making My Way

I seem to be continually on an artistic journey as I  create. I've began working in oils at age 13. I created still lifes, figurative works and landscapes.  In my 20's through 30's I went into soft pastel portraiture. Next I began working in acrylics. And now I have embarked on oils again. Here's the latest titled "Making My Way"

Challenge yourself

The title of this painting is "Risky Robin". Why such a title? One thing is I have a thing for alliteration. Secondly is to encourage challenging myself and others, to move forward take chances in expanding the possibilities. It's about being wise but not fearful. I hopw that makes sense.

Title and why

Her Irises is titled as such because of the garden that my mother had when I was a child
