Inspired by years of sailing the Pacific Northwest aboard Take Five with my husband and dog, Poppy, my seascapes capture the ocean's shifting personality. My work freezes a distinct moment in time—whether it is a crashing wave or a quiet, contemplative pause.

Energy and movement are dominant features in my semi-abstract style. I take great liberties with what I see to emphasize the inherent dynamism of the sea, balancing a deep love for line and emotion with a playful approach to abstraction.

Working with acrylic, oil sticks, charcoal, pastels, and collage, I constantly experiment with new tools and value continuous growth. Ultimately, I strive to translate the raw energy of the water into a visual experience, and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I do creating it.
