I am a work at home mom of 4 children. I mainly do commission artworks for clients. I have both corporate and private clients. I have illustrated some books. If you are interested in seeing more, please visit my website - I'd welcome any comments and suggestions!

One of my specialties is combining elements from different photos to create a portrait or design.

My sub-specialty is memorial portraiture of deceased babies based on the photo(s). I also create age-regression portraits of children who have been adopted at an older age and have no baby photos.

I love to work in all different mediums and styles when I can (it's hard to find time with little ones at home) but I know I will never be bored.

My favorite artists are: John Singer Sargent, Norman Rockwell, Chuck Close, MC Escher, Leslie Ann Ivory, Mary Cassatt, and others. I know they have all effected my art in some way.

Having enough time to create art.

Not having enough time to create art.

I love to do a bunch of stuff, just no time right now for anything other than drawing!

Thank you for your positive comments. I have never heard of Tombow Mono Homograph pencils. I will have to look around for them. I have some more pictures up on my bike shop web page thebikestand.com/artwork.html but I have not changed it around of late. I have other stuff that I put up to change it up a little. I am just having so much fun with it right now. Thanks again and good luck learning the web site. Also you know you can put your web page<
www.DarlaDixon.comas> as a link on top of your picture.
