The falling leaves
"The falling leaves drift past my window, the falling leaves of red and gold."- Lyrics by Johnny Mercer
Modern Geisha
The Modern Geisha poster was created in Adobe Illustrator. The fan was modeled after a Chinese brush painting given to me by Mrs. Kao. The model is peeking from behind her fan, the palm fronds and the black border to add to the mystery of the scene.
The Blue-jay and the Pine
The sketch is done with a ballpoint pen. The tree is as alive as the blue jay. It's branches have rhythm. They are reminiscent of human limbs and hands. The bird and tree sing together in the breeze.
The Bridge at CU Boulder
The campus at CU Boulder is so beautiful. This watercolor was done en plein air.The water mirrors the beauty above it. The reflections represent our emotions or spirit. It represents a bridge between ephemeral and physical.
