Inspired by years of sailing the Pacific Northwest, my seascapes echo the rhythm and dramatic movement of the ocean— the sway of the tide and the shifting horizon. These paintings capture the fluid energy of being at sea, offering a sense of motion and freedom.

The same expressive energy can be found in my boat abstracts, where lines and shapes intersect in spontaneous ways to create compositions that feel alive—color and form that invite curiosity and uplift the spirit.

Whether I’m painting boats, water, or blooms, the common thread is a playful approach to abstraction and a deep love for line, movement, and emotion.
