I wasn’t trying to paint something sad. I was trying to paint what happens when the balance tips. The land wants water, but not like this. This is my view of water-logged crops and destroyed rows. This work shows the storm's impact on soil, harvest, and spirit.
At night, the ocean doesn't change. But I do. With no light to guide you, you're not just seeing anymore. You are feeling, listening, reacting. This seascape is a painting of the ocean after sunset, during what I call the limbo hours. That is when the world slows down and shadows become part of the art process itself.
Living just a few blocks from the ocean changes how you see things. I walk the beach almost every day, and what I see isn't always beautiful. My latest painting, 'Plastic Tide,' came from one of those post-storm walks where the beach was littered with so much plastic debris.
