Satin Fire

“Satin Fire” was a painting that sold in 1987 before I'd had it photographed.  Fortunately the collectors lived locally and recently they kindly allowed me to borrow it back to have it photographed, so it is now I can share it with my fans.  It is always an experience seeing a work of art that I created in the early stages of my artistic explorations.  The texture of the pastel, the paper, the composition and technique are all slightly different from what I do now, yet the essence of the spirit, the intent of infusing paper with pastel to create life... is vividly there.  It is like being reacquainted with an old friend.  Perhaps Satin Fire had to wait until now... to be revealed to someone who only now needs to see it...
