Awakening 24" round porthole painting on gold leaf SOLD
I'm inspired by the incredible waterways of the Pacific Northwest -- oceans and inlets, streams and sounds, lakes and rivers. These natural forms are constant sources of beauty and movement, and they shape much of what I create.
Using multiple layers, I combine the shimmer and luminosity of metal leaf with paint, texture, glazing, and varnish to build each piece. The result is a surface that shifts with light and angle — reflective, dimensional, and always changing.
This is my visual language -- a way of exploring, seeking equilibrium, and balancing uncertainty with hope. In sharing this work, I invite you to do the same.

Life is this simple: we are living in a world that is absolutely transparent
and the divine is shining through it all the time.

Just thinking about the horizon produces a response in the body... a dramatic slowing down of the body rhythms to create a natural stillness of body and mind.
