Life 21c Series: AllUSHeroes| Sheroes NY
Sheroes NY Series
Works of women, reflecting our multi-ethnic, diverse population, express ALL of US as important & worthy of a portrait.
So-named in 2020, works symbolize (for me) All US Heroes in overcoming challenges to save oneself,
and the life of others.

Drawing with Red Chalks
On the Road to Painting
I use toned paper to draw on as its tonality is like that of an ‘underpainting’ -- a canvas lightly washed with color. To draw subjects on it prior to painting, I use Red Conte Crayons as they don’t muddy applied paints (in contrast to charcoal & graphite pencil). Consistent use of Contes for drawing on paper maintains
swift, facile stroke capability transferable to canvas whenever needed.
The less drawing the better for painting. Thus in portraits/ figure drawings in Red Chalk presented here,
one will sense like economy & practicality.
