Whispers from the deep
acrylic and mixed media on canvas
36" x 36"

Striving to catch the movement and emotion in the ocean is always my goal. I used an interplay of blues, blacks and whites to create a dynamic energy in this painting. Occasional hints of reds and yellows peek through to provide warmth and contrast against the cool palette. It brings to mind the energy of a giant wave or even a constellation up in the sky.

Beyond Blue

Mountains and sky merge seamlessly in this dynamic yet peaceful abstract painting. Inspired by the view from my studio, I captured the essence of the mountain range meeting the sea under a vibrant, layered sky of soft blues. I painted around the edges, allowing the artwork to be appreciated from any angle.

Slice of Paradise
acrylic on canvas

I love seeing sails on the horizon. In my abstracted way they are almost a faint reminder that they were once there. Below the sea dances this way and that acting as the stage for the scene I see over and over again.

What lies between
acrylic and mixed media on canvas
30" x 24"

The gap is a constant calling to me as I see it from my studio window and it has a metaphorical meaning to us. Passing through the gap on our sailing voyages indicates we are on holiday and ready for adventure at sea. There is only the water and distance that lies between us and our destination.

Coastal Explorer
acrylic on canvas
30" x 24"

When we are out sailing we love to explore the shoreline looking at all the details the coastal waters and islands have to offer. As a lone sailboat meanders along the shore, a fleet of sails is running a race in the distance. Other ships pass by along the horizon. Each one in a world of its own on a great big sea.
