My most favorite medium is oil. I studied with a master teacher for 6 years and decided to paint realistically. In most of my oils, I included a bead. It's a reminder to me that I used to have a jewelry business. It also makes things a little more fun when people search each painting for the jewel.
From 2006 to 2009, I lived in Israel with my late husband. During that time I took an innumerable amount of photos.
​
I became interested in pen and ink drawings I saw on YouTube and realized I had some of the pens used. So, I began experimenting, and found I liked it. I bought some special paper and drew in pencil, "Back Yards, Jerusalem1. When I finished it in ink, I got an overwhelming feeling I should do a series of drawings from my photos. So here we are. I hope you enjoy them. I did a series of the gates of Jerusalem, too.
Then I enrolled in a watercolor class and found I really love painting in watercolors. So you will see a sampling of my work.
