Several years ago I was asked to write an article for INTERNATIONAL ARTIST Magazine. I spent several months writing and re-writing the article focusing on my underpainting technique in pastel painting, photographing "Vineyard Road" in progressive stages as I painted it, and adding requested pointers. It was a lot of work, but helpful to me to articulate the process that I generally use in creating my pastels. I submitted the article almost three years ago, and was thrilled to finally get to see my article in print in the August/September, 2008, issue of the magazine. They did a wonderful job of laying out the eight page article and reproducing the photos of my paintings.
