Embers of Fall — the season’s final flare.
the last breath of fall pressed against the first snows of the season. when warmth clashes with cold, yet it’s a little longer before winter settles in. 🍂❄️

Sunset in a Storm
A dance of heat and shadow — where embers meet the earth and the horizon seems to melt into light. ✨ This piece explores the boundary between the end and start of a new day.

I’ve been traveling! Enjoy this video of waves crashing on the shore - it will be inspiration for my next artistic experiment! #art #waves #naturesmusic #abstract

Tried my hand at pottery painting today and apparently tomatos are in vogue at the moment according to the owner of the shop 🍅 I just wanted a bowl that would serve as both a pasta and salad bowl 😅 #tomato #pomodori #pottery #paint #saladbowl

Two creatures, one painting. A rat and a mouse!
One’s scrappy and loud, the other’s quick and quiet.
It's the same lines, but different energy, depending on how you look at it.
It's fun how art can hold opposite meanings at the same time

I often think about the vastness of space and time. The Cosmos is a graphic representation of the passion, vastness, the chaos and peacefulness the cosmos, the universe, that holds all of us in it. #abstract #abstractart #acryllic #universe #peace #space #belonging

Not my usual but found it calming to just spread paint on a canvas with some color blocking but I’m not sure what to do next! #workinprogress #art #abstract #canvas #acryllic

The elders is a city scape that ellicits the sense of the towering buildings that span generations, silently watching and listening as we muddle away. The contrast here is with the sweeping movements of the ocean and sand, ever moving, and changing. #art #abstract #urbanism #canvas #painting

The Street is a abstraction of all the things streets get used for, the dangers they represent and the way they slice through our natural environments and urban spaces. The cardinal directions play a part in sheparding us to our destinations. #arr #urbanist #abstract #abstractart #street

A walk at night is a reflection of the Santa Monica Pier from the beach. A soft glow but otherwise darkness in the mist being swept along the beach to the ocean #art #abstractart #santamonica

Rwaaaahh! Is a piece I created reflecting on my chronic, invisible illness - the turmoil happening within is difficult for others to see, but boy is it there! #art #abstract #acryllic #chronicillness #heds

Tried out a new technique to create lines and arches. Turned out alright! This is Hibernation, a furry friend curled up, napping. #art #abstract #abstractart #acrylic #animals

Sometimes when I start to paint with an idea I see something else! While I intended it to be an ocean landscape on a gray, misty day, I started to see a weeping lady - maybe not too dissimilar - mother earth crying, perhaps? #art #abstract #abstractart #acrylic #painting

Sunset on the mountains. It’s that time of year when the sun hits the malibu hills just right at the end of the day. The black? The burn spots visible from the shore. #art #abstract #acrylic #abstractart #malibu

Found a new friend on a recent beach walk - I just need to get him a saxophone and a pair of sunglasses, I think… #barnacles #shells #beach

I made this one a while back and I enjoy it! Bison in the Tall Grass is both an tribute to my hometown (Buffalo) and my own wild journey along ways from home ending in LA. #art #buffalo #abstractart #painting #blueskyart

“Walk to the ocean” is a piece I made thinking about the beauty of the waves and sand but also the erosion and plastic garbage I pick up on every trip. #art #abstractart #blueskyart #waves

A rainy day calls for some “self reflection.” This piece started as a self portrait but turned into a reflection of the self - bold, colorful, and always battling the darkness within. #art #blueskyart #abstractart #artwork #artist #originalpaintings #abstractpainting
