“Soft Serene Moments that Capture the Soul of the Sea”

Capturing light and atmosphere is at the core of my work. Its elusive quality has the ability to transform a setting as it bounces and reflects off the surrounding surfaces. I capture the magical, fleeting essence of light so that we can contemplate the beauty and intensity of these transient moments a little longer before the temporality of the setting subsides and disappears to time.

The depth and the changing colour and expansiveness of the sea is a constant source of comfort and naturally finds its way into my work. The push and pull of the tide is a consistency I seek out to ground and root myself and has the ability to produce a feeling of peace and belonging, a sense of being ‘at home.’ This connection to the sea, between place and the inner self has the ability to stay with you wherever you are.

The paintings capture the delicacy of these ephemeral moments so the viewer can connect to those feelings of serenity, lightness, peace and belonging.

💫Art Process💫

💫2 coats of size and 3 coats of primer on each of these wood panels💫

💛Love the smoother surface of the wood panels.. the primer allows for good adherence to the next layers of paint 🎨

💛What's your favourite surface to work on?

💛Have a great start to your week out there 🙂

💫Artwork in progress💫

💫Some days, you just have to start and see where the creative process leads you 💫

💫I start with a plan, and the work evolves as I go💫

💫Working towards a deadline keeps me on my toes, and I timeblock to make sure the admin side of things doesn't take over my precious studio time💫

💫Happy Wednesday 💛
