Hi Roberta, thanks for your nice comments on my work. I use a lot of different materials, I do some work with watercolors (very little), pastel (I love it because it reminds me of drawing with color chalks when I was little) and water mixable oils. But lately, I've started using a lot of mixed media, mixing them all up, on top of highly textured surfaces. This started out as a way of "unblocking" my mind when I got stuck, but they've taken a life of their own.

Good luck with your show!

Hello there,

   I see that we do have more in common than painting.  Your also involved in music and writing.  Do you do stand-up?  What are the monologues that you write.  My daughter is a stand-up comic and is currently working on monoluges for this 2 person show.  She tours all over the world.    

  Hmmm???  I guess I will be turning 109 soon.  I guess I do carry my 109 years ok.  LOL!    Take Care, Karen

Hi Roberta,

Having recently moved from Chicago to Los Angeles, I am familiar with your name, so how nice to meet you here! I didn't know you were also a painter, and I think your work is beautiful. I was also a member of CAC, and am sad there isn't a similar group out here.

Thanks so much for your comments on my work. I do appreciate feedback on everything, so your comment on my titles is welcome. Any title in particular? I am becoming more particular about how I title my work now, and "The Agents of Change" is the first piece in a series I am working on by the same name. Many of my titles are personal, and I allow the viewer to come away with their own ideas.

Thanks again!
