MY REACTION:  The older I get, the more I want simple.  Pure.  Emotion.  When I was younger, I was concerned with complexities.  Enormities.  Making a big impression was important.  Showing what I could do.  Now, I know what I can do.  And I just want to make simple exclamations.  Colorful little stories that help folks feel.

CONTENT:  Dogs are my people.

ARTISTIC CONCERNS:  This is among the first in a new body of lose expressive gouche, graphite, and ink pieces.  They are fresh and fun and exciting for me to create.  I typically sketch the piece in regular old pencil, paint it with layers of gouache, then finish it with fine artists' pens or a harder pure graphite pencil that makes nice deep silvery lines giving the piece a wee bit of a stained glass feel.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW:  This piece is on acid free bristol board paper (kinda like cardstock).  You will want to mat and frame this painting to protect your investment.  It will be shipped in a glassine storage bag or envelope.  Sandwiched between protective cardboard sheets.
