About The Artwork
I painted this pastel years ago and dug it out of my collection to share. I experimented with texture on water color paper originally . I added a gesso mix with glass bead granules to give it a slight sparkle, then i added a acrylic wash and pastel on top.. It was very hard to preserve over the years as I found it susceptible to tearing. I decided to repair the tears by applying a heavy matt panel glued behind the acrylic paper .My experiment worked out great, but I know now to add the thick backing paper before applying colors. ( You may see a few of my crack repairs , that's why I decide to sell this pastel at a reduced price. I know know to My daughter was a flower girl. I loved the experience and I'm sure from the experience I'll be doing more pastels in a similar technic I painted this pastel years ago and dug it out of my collection to share. My daughter was a flower girl. I loved the experience and learned a lot

United States
I have been a painter most of my life . Although for many years my time invested in it was very limited. I started a family at a very early age , so my focus was on survival. I remember getting up 5:30am each morning before work just to dedicate a few hours to my art. I was eventually granted a few art scholarships for painting here at Houston's Glassell art school, based the the work I produced. This training added to my skills, although I still lacked the time to develop them. I retired a few years back, so now time really isn't a issue. With my extra time I feel like I am gaining confidence and skills required to aster the art. During this time I have also discovered the art of songwriting. I have written and produce over 70 songs on my own. I hope to continue my advancements in the arts, and add my individuality to the art world. Although much of my work seems to have a African American theme, That's part of my world, and I believe this world is underrepresented.
