Artist Bio
My work is intimately tied to the sea. I paint by the ocean in Cape Cod, mostly outdoors sitting on the sand, so that I can absorb the fresh saline air and feel one with my natural surroundings. I use acrylic paint mixed with marine elements such as sand, water, coral pebbles, broken glass, and horseshoe crab shells. The various sizes and properties of the sand grains, mixed with paint and ocean water, form a myriad of unexpected shades and textures, partly reflecting changes in weather conditions and seasons. Through my work, I raise awareness on the importance of preserving natural habitats and maintaining our connection to the earth.
