Artwork Description

I spend many evenings walking along this beach. It's so peaceful. The light at this time of day is otherworldly. It's not brassy or brash, the whole sky, the ocean and the sand are painted in soft pink light. Of course I had to challenge nature and see if I could emulate this quality with my little tubes of pigment. This painting is inspired by an evening we saw a single sailboat on the horizon.

Artist Bio

My studio is in the middle of my home, We live by the forest, The forest is full of creatures and birds. The house is full of things, dust, art and sometimes creatures as well. My paintings evolve over many hours, sometimes months, building layer upon layer. For me this is the thing that is so wonderful about painting, it's slowness.
