Babies, who doesn’t love a baby? They are cute, cuddly and just so tiny. Perhaps the thing that “draws”me to babies is not so much a baby’s “cuteness” but the sheer miracle of their being and their birth.

My vocation as a Childbirth Educator, doula and mother of 4 has allowed me the privilege of witnessing the miracle of birth and these wonderful new little beings.

My art is intended to bring parents back to those precious times of when their own babies were small. The softness of the little one’s skin, the closeness while nursing, small fingers and toes longing to be caressed, kissed and loved…such fleeting but cherished moments.

With the use of graphite pencils I strive to record the rich details that capture the essence of a young baby. Wrinkles in the newborn’s wet hands and feet, a baby nursing and folded safely into a mother’s arms. These images are some of the memories that parents carry in their hearts forever

I invite you to browse through the galleries, listed by subject and allow those memories in your heart to be stirred. Just click on the title of the image and details of the drawing along with the drawing itself will appear.
Enjoy!
