Revealing myself




Hi! Allan posted asking new members to step forward, so here I am! I'm 42 years old, married with 3 daughters. I've come somewhat late in life to the art world. I started doing portraits in graphite 6 years ago. Prior to that, I was a stick figure drawer. Six months ago, I started with oil pastels and love them. So far I have done portraits of my children and friends' children. I work mostly from photographs, but the older children have been able to sit for me for short periods towards the end. I've been lurking here and learning a lot! Attached is one of my oil pastel portraits (mind you, this is before I learned how to take good reference photos!).
