CARA
 Welcome to my web site, and on line gallery, I'm a professional artist living in Pgh, PA. For decades I've created commissioned portraits in oil, pastel or pencil, of subjects as widely diverse as the family pet all the way to the commander and chief of the country.

Either in studio or on location with private sittings or photographic reference I'm confident that I can capture on canvas or paper the image you want to show.

Drawings have been featured in two books; "Strokes of Genius, the best of Drawing" and "Strokes of Genius 2, Light and Shadow".I am a member of The Portrait Society of America, Colored Pencil Society of America, Pittsburgh Society of Artists.

Please take a moment and review the link here, one is a time lapse of a sitting and the other is a link to an article featuring the portrait of First Lady Michelle and President Barack Obama.

I'll be more than happy to answer any questions regarding a private commission or illustration projects that you may have...

Thanks for your time and enjoy
