My work begins at the breakwater—where the sky feels endless, the tide keeps its rhythm, and birds carry both awkwardness and majesty in equal measure. Out there, I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, I’ve turned up the music so loud it drowned out everything but the moment. What I find in those in-between spaces is resilience, humor, and beauty. The creatures I watch—sometimes graceful, sometimes clumsy—remind me of our own ways of just “handling our business.” My paintings are a way of honoring that raw honesty, transforming it into color and form, and offering it back as a kind of love letter to the Cape’s wild spirit.
