I'm inspired just by putting together this feature!! I don't know about all of you, but I want to get to painting immediately on all my animals. :D  

I hope these works of art light a fire in you too hit your drawing board or easel and start creating more art!!! Enjoy the eye candy and please visit the artist's galleries and show them your love by faving.

NOTE: None of these are photographs! All but one of them are traditional art. That one other is digital artwork.

Journal History

deviantID

I'm a colored pencil and pastel artist. I do mostly portraits (both human & animal) and inspirational paintings. I love detailed realistic paintings, which is why I work in colored pencils & pastels.

My home is blessed with five wonderful cats who have chosen to share my living space: Tooki, Treat, Tony, Mischief, and more recently Tooter (alias lovebug). They definitely keep me busy and well entertained.

I have been married since 2004 to a wonderful man who thoroughly supports my artistic obsession. He helps keep me straight. I give thanks to my Lord & Savior for blessing me with the artistic talent He has seen fit to give to me. I only hope I can honor Him with my use of it.
