I am a basically self-taught artist experimenting with different mediums and methods of expression. All types of art appeal to me at some basic level but generally I am drawn most towards any subject where light and dark can be expressed. I especially enjoy how an everyday, ordinary object can be transformed into something beautiful by just changing the light that it is viewed in. Every day that allows for some artistic expression is a happy day for me.

PET PORTRAITS IN PASTEL
I love to paint animals of any type, but particularly love painting family pets. I do all my portraits in pastel on suede matboard which is a wonderful support for creating realistic pieces of art which will last a lifetime. Please contact me at lyurge@shaw.ca if interested in commissioning a portrait of your wonderful pet.
