"Once in a blue moon..." 🌊🌕

There is something deeply mesmerizing about a night landscape, and tonight’s rare blue moon has us feeling extra inspired.

This aluminium, mixed media painting by gallery owner Pam Neaves beautifully captures that mood. Look closely and you’ll see the intricate layers—from the deeply textured dark blues of the water to the golden light breaking through the sky, complete with embedded text and graphical elements created by the artist that give it a wonderful, tactile depth.

Looking for a truly unique piece for your collection? Stop by Mooch Art and Makers today to see how the light plays off the aluminium base in person.

Over 40 artists across two carefully curated floors of local art and makers.
