A classic still life of a bouquet of pink peonies in a dainty glass vase atop a wood table; but created by a text-to-image program as digital art. I've been experimenting with image-generating software, and the juxtaposition of the newest software with the old masters' style has yielded some interesting results. The peony buds are not fully open, yet are of larger-than-life proportions compared to the leaves and stems, not to mention the vase itself.

I often joke that I learned to draw and paint because it is easier and quicker for me than getting a good photograph. I do still make the attempt to use my camera more effectively from time to time, but I have more natural aptitude to using a pencil or paint. Often what few photographs I am satisfied with become reference for my artwork. I work with charcoal, soft pastels, oil pastels, watercolor, acrylic, and am learning oil painting. I tend towards more realistic, although I have dabbled in impressionism when the fancy strikes. I live at the dead end of a dirt road in rural Florida with my husband and a yardful of critters, while the local deer and wild turkeys eat my annual efforts at gardening.
