While You Were Out | 2025

Created during time spent in New England, this painting reflects the quiet split between two daily worlds: my husband at home on the West Coast, moving through familiar routines, and me immersed in an artistic journey and outdoor exploration. The work captures that gentle tension between absence and discovery.

Lobster Pot | 2025

This piece responds to the iconic Lobster Pot in Provincetown, MA — a landmark that shaped local culture and famously served as the first restaurant where Anthony Bourdain worked as a dishwasher. The painting distills the spirit of the place: bright, bold, and rooted in the texture of coastal life.

Yellow Gladiolus ( Work in Progress)

A little glimpse into something still unfolding. This piece is part of a new series of oversized florals and still lifes I’m building, and even in its unfinished state it’s giving me so much joy. I’m following that energy as I paint, letting this one show me where the series wants to go next. I hope the feeling comes through even at this stage.

Cowboy Sister Mudheads | 2025

I painted this piece after a trip to New England, where I viewed student works from Charles Hawthorne. He taught a method that produced the now-famous “Mudheads,” emphasizing broad color spots over fine detail. This painting is my own exploration of that approach — a color-spot Mudhead interpretation filtered through my contemporary eye.|

You Know You Glow in California | 2025

The title plays on both the California light and the figure I adapted from Euan Uglow’s Nude with Lake Lugano. I’m fascinated by Uglow’s clarity, precision, and luminous control of color, and I enjoy the mental journey of transcribing his forms into my own language.

His nudes feel unexpectedly at home in my coastal narrative — their sculptural stillness carrying the same quiet, sun-drenched calm I experience here. This painting aims to hold that sensation: the slowed time, the humming light, the body both weightless and grounded. The figure becomes less a portrait and more a vessel for that fleeting, radiant state of mind.

Boats, Boys and More Buoys

This section is currently serving as an extension of my visual note-taking. A representation of “work in progress”.

I’m uploading works in various states of development, because a lot new is happening and I’m trying to keep up.
