As often happens that unfettered joy of artmaking slipped into the ether after I graduated and I didnāt return to soft pastels until I went back to college some years later to study design. A happy reunion in a drawing class with the medium reminded me of the charge it gave me. A few years later and I fully launched back into it and havenāt looked back.
I was eager to try new products, and Unison soft pastels were on my radar. I bought a 72 landscape set and was set!
I have always looked to landscape as my main subject of expression. Chalk it up to living in Canada – wide open spaces and lush wilderness! A penchant to experiment with colour and texture keeps me engaged and inquisitive – what would happen if I tried this…All in all pastel is my favourite carrot!
