Rachel, a mixed media piece on canvas. If I ever had a little girl, I would have named her Rachel.

Recently I've been experimenting with different texture techniques when using acrylics and sometimes in watercolor as well. In this piece I love the crackle paste. I think it's so much fun.

This piece was basically an intuitive piece as well as a successful experiment.

"Creativity takes courage."

— Henri Matisse

To those who rarely create art, it may seem as though the process of creation is easy and comes without any challenges. But, for those of us who know that creating a work of art is rarely simple, this quote by Henri Matisse will likely resonate.
