The water dances off the Big Island
Ocean waves dancing off the shore of Big Island as they gracefully meet the dark black rocks at sunset. The setting sun, concealed behind drifting clouds near the horizon, casts forth a radiant golden glow. A hint of evening pink peaks through on the horizon. Can you hear the waves calling

In my art, I aim to capture the essence of warmth and light that surrounds us. I find inspiration in the organic glow in nature, and want to convey its beauty in a way that is both familiar and enchanting. The majority of my work center around nature but am also interested in exploring other subjects. My goal is to create art that can serve as a visual sanctuary for the viewer – a place where the beauty meets the comfort of a refuge. It’s about creating a space for reflection and even a brief respite from our day to day busy life.
My style leans toward but is not purely realism. With acrylic paint, I prefer building my art in layers, and apply a good amount of dry brushing. I want to share what touches my heart, so my current subject matter is based on places I love, and that have brought me peace, joy, or delight. Trees (especially redwoods), nature, Hawaii, and the ocean all hold a special place in my being.
I hope the viewers can immerse themselves in the beauty and discover a momentary escape. I want to remind all of us our yearning for tranquility and beauty in our heart and soul. Join me in exploring these realms and find solace in the warmth the scenery offers.
