“Thousand Shades of Bleu” Oil 23.6’’x36.2’’
My seascapes encapsulate the many layers and beauty found within the ocean's water. The techniques I use in oils create a multidimensional perspective for the viewer that offers a contemporary insight into the movement, power, liquidity, and color of our beloved oceans. Emotions, energy, and spirituality are the catalysts of all my paintwork and photography. There is very little desire for perfection or realism. But an extension of thought via placing an infusion of strength, hope, and courage into what I create. I offer the viewer of my work a portal to those feelings."
