Title or Location: Lowcountry Wonder
Surgery is an amalgamation of art and science, and with that definition I have been an artist for 30 years. I had to stop operating last year due to physical disabilities, and needed a new medium for artistic expression. I have been so inspired by the amazing artist in Charleston and so moved by many of the marsh paintings in the local galleries. I started oil painting and waking up early to photograph sunrises last year. The reference photo for this painting was taken at oyster point in Mt.

An old friend of mine who I graduated high school with over 20 years ago had reached out to me. Her sons best friend Dylan had passed away in a tragic accident several weeks ago. They were inseparable. My friend would always comment how talented I was until one day she had reached out and asked if I would be willing to draw a portrait of Dylan for his mother. I was honored she would consider me worthy for something like this. Dylan attended a private school and was a heart felt warm loving child

Title or Location: Eyes of the world
I saw this little boy on TV on the news. The news told about the consequences of great destruction due to the war in one of the eastern countries. They pulled him out from under the rubble of his house, he was dirty and scared. And I saw his eyes, which reflected fear with all the pain in the world. This boy seemed to me a symbol of children who suffered from various troubles on earth, such as war, earthquakes and other disasters. At that moment, I was sitting at home in Ukraine, in Odessa,

This colored pencil drawing was completed on Pastelmat as part of a weekly live draw program ?Artclub? provided by The Bonny Snowdon Academy. She is a world renowned colored pencil artist, teaching hyper realism. It?s amazing to create art from the same reference photo as multiple artists but have a unique drawing with each person?s style and perspective. I lived in the highlands of Scotland for 3 years so learning to draw this big fella was a 360 life moment for me. I am constantly growing by i

The clothing items I used for this still life came from my closet. I was thinking about how life is more than what we wear and how it is more important that we are clothed in kindness, strength, and humility.

Oils on 56cm x 46cm canvas. Large for me!A larger canvas really does provide a wonderful opportunity to dive into the textures and subtleties of the lion cub's fur, and those expressive little details?like the way its eyes catch the light. Oils allows you to layer and blend, giving more depth and ability to play with the softness of the fur.

Title or Location: Vernal Equinox in the Straits of Mackinac
Winter?s grip on the Straits of Mackinac slowly melts away with each passing day of warm sunshine. The ice cover gradually retreats with the approaching spring and renewal of another shipping season on the Great Lakes. Round Island Lighthouse has been a sentinel and silent witness to this annual ritual for over a hundred years.
