The intense and vibrant color pastels create along with texture like soft velvet is very exciting to me. I love the adventure of trying something new. Capturing light is one of the challenges that creates excitement for me. I try to paint the light, focusing on the dramatic results of the pattern of shade and sun. The intense and vibrant color pastels create is very satisfying for me. - Karen Savage
