Portrait Art

The human face is a canvas of thoughts, emotions and feelings.

Facial contours, shadows, tones and textures deliver messages that are clues about a person. My portraiture incorporates the techniques I learned while working with Paul Yank.  All finishing work was done with colored pencils, using Paul's palette to create a lifelike appearance.


Many of the monoprint images are part of a series printed on 30" X 22" Rives BFK printmaking stock. High-quality reproductions known as giclees are available for much of my artwork. Contact me for more information.

Native American Art

The images and symbolism of native cultures tell intriguing stories.

Working with Paul Yank, I learned to appreciate the manner in which he honored indigenous people with art. He inspired me to appreciate these cultures, using their spiritual attitudes and physical symbols to finalize thought-provoking monoprints. 


Many of the monoprint images are part of a series printed on 30" X 22" Rives BFK printmaking stock. High-quality reproductions known as giclees are available for much of my artwork. Contact me for more information.
