What is your favorite type of art to create?

I love my colored pencils. They give me the control I need to create realistic images. I often add paint, markers and a bit of fairy dust to my pencil work to suggest the sparkling magic I see in our everyday world.

Where do you find inspiration?

My inspiration comes from our natural world of forests and gardens and the magical creatures that inhabit them.

What would you do with $25,000?

Eat, drink and be merry.
