Ooooo, I'd love to see some of your work if you have some posted. I love checking out art on the web.
I prefer oils, especially for my large pieces, but I find acrylics capture yorkies better!
Here is my portfolio if you'd like to see more of my work:

I'm not sure what style I would say inspires me but I really try to capture a feeling or an emotion lately. Sometimes I try to go more abstract based on places and events I've been to (like the girls by the pool). Sometimes I just go for the realism and that seems to sell well.
Thanks so much for the great feedback.
