These images come to me from a variety of sources - sparks of ideas from the words of poems, songs or prose; dreams, and daydreams. I tend to use whatever medium seems appropriate for the subject or idea, or whatever helps me bring out the feeling of the original idea. Most of the pieces are created using washes of heavily saturated watercolour which is allowed to fully dry and then soft pastel is drawn on top. This creates a sparkling and luminous effect.
