Summer is SO close, yet I haven’t been able to get to the ocean yet. My tail is terribly dry! 🧜‍♀️

Until then, I shall paint oceans.

Nature is my peace. These are some recent small studies.

Totally different looks depending on the frame.

Curious which people prefer - the acrylic block frames, double matters, or gold glass hanging frames.

I’m hoping to keep these pieces together, but if you could only have 1, which would it be?

I made these pieces during the depths of winter when I was starving for color and light. Now I watch them change depending on the light throughout the day.

I will be forever in awe of the ocean, its might, and many forms.

Thanks, Mother Ocean, for the continued inspiration.

Celebrating World Ocean Day! 🌊

While painting this seascape, I kept thinking about how hard it is to leave space in our lives.

We clear a weekend. We finish a project. We finally catch our breath.

And then, almost immediately, something rushes in to fill the opening.

It reminds me of digging in dry sand. No matter how much you clear away, the edges keep collapsing back in.

I was tempted to add something to the horizon of this painting—a boat, a distant shoreline, a land mass.

Instead, I left it empty. Intentionally.

Not because it needed less, but because it already felt complete.

Sometimes a horizon doesn’t need a focal point.

Sometimes we just need a place for our eyes—and our minds—to rest.

And room to breathe.

Just a few key photos from some good, eye-catching moments recently. In their own way, they tell a story.
