Painting in My Own Voice

Since I work in a variety of mediums (watercolor, pastel, acrylics, pen & ink, gouache, sometimes oils), I can't claim to be one thing or the other, not solely a watercolor artist or pastel artist or whatever.  I call myself a visual artist, just to make things easier in a world that loves labels.

I don't want to paint like anyone else, but sometimes that happens regardless.  However, when I work in my looser watercolor style embellished with pen & ink line work, or paint my tiny gouaches, or create a pastel painting with my slant stroke technique, I feel like I am painting in my own voice.  I feel these are more my trademark pieces.

My newest work, Broken Falls, is an example of the loose watercolor with pen & ink line work I truly enjoy painting.  It is one of several new pieces going into my solo show at North Country Art Center's City Hall Gallery in Glens Falls, NY this September.
