‘The Old Man’ is an original drawing. The medium I used was a stamp and a black ink pad. From a distance, it looks like pencil but I actually rendered this drawing using a numbered stamp…like the ones they use in warehouses and businesses.
It is done on tracing paper, which is very thin. I have it layed on top of a white piece of board so that the image appears stronger. The tracing paper is very fragile so next time, I may use different paper to draw on.
I love impressionistic art. Working in different ways is both exciting and fun.

I studied illustration and design at The Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. I am married and the mother of two wonderful boys; one is in college and the other in High School. Since they are growing up, I have more time to myself which I enjoy channeling into my drawing and painting.
I am inspired by the elegance and simplicity of japanese ‘sumi-e’ and Chinese ‘shui-mo hua’ painting. I love the grace and beauty of bamboo.
