Welcome to the color pencil page.
Introduction

Attending a class or demonstration is always a great way to learn new techniques or try out a different medium.
I attended a color pencil class in 1999 at the Dowagiac MI Art guild. There I got the chance to play with many different brands of pencils. I really like the Prisma color pencils and have been doing these flower images ever since.

I use photographs for reference, most of which I shot right in my backyard. Pencils are a nice diversion from painting and I can just work a little while and stop any time. I don't have to worry about paint colors I've mixed drying out, or have to wait while layers dry before I can continue. I really like the detail that can be achieved with pencils. This is definitely something I will continue to do.

Christmas Cardinal
10 x 13

All of these images are original drawings on bristol board.

Sizes listed here are for artwork area only. ALL images on this page are currently matted and framed. (Except the dogwoods.) Ready to hang! Please inquire as to exact size of frame, matt, matt color etc.

I CAN remove the frame and ship artwork with it's matt alone. This will cut down on shipping charges. Again, ask.

Prices will vary based on size, amount of detail, and if you want it shipped with or without it's frame. To give you an idea though, the 5x7 smallest images sell for $25.00 each. Some commission work can run up to $250.00.

Prints!
Everything on this page is available as an 8x10 print. I print these on canvas right off my home printer. Pencil drawing take very well to this. Trust me here, they look terrific!!! One lady commented that she liked the "painting" I sent her. I had to tell her not to do a cartwheel, it's just a print.

Because I can run these any time, they are cheap! $20.00 each and FREE SHIPPING
(within the continental US.)

Save even more. Order one at the $20.00 fee, and any second print is free.
(Shipping at the same time to the same address only.)

NOTE: two 5 x 7s can fit on one page. Call that two for one.

YOU frame the prints. They come in a photo envelope. No matt included.
