As one of a handful of artists working in this exciting medium, she is something of a pioneer, internationally recognized. This years Pantone color of the year is called Very-Peri. It’s an original color made by Pantone that is similar to periwinkle. I’ve used this color in my work for years. Visit my shop for the latest samples of very-peri inspired art.

Video of me working on a commissioned seascape paintings. Note the swatches of colors and fabrics. 💙 💚 ⁠

This collector lives near the Outer Banks of North Carolina. For her, the colors of the sea are her inspiration. 🌊⁠

As someone who lives near the sea on the north shore of Boston, I can appreciate her sensitivity to this ancient terrain.⁠

Do you have a color palette inspired by your natural environment? Would you like to commission original art as a celebration of those colors? 🏚️⁠

Poseidon’s Lamp, epoxy and abaca sculpture with LED lights, 5w x 12h x 5d⁠

“It would be great if these sculptures could be lit from within.” I heard this from so many people, I set about making it happen. After several trials, and I do mean SEVERAL, I figured it out. Using a USB charger, the light can be plugged into a wall socket or charged for up to 20 hours of continued light. Includes one USB-C charging cable.⁠

The idea for making a glass-like, ocean wave-inspired sculpture using abaca and epoxy took me over three years to perfect. The aqua color is pigmented abaca, the strongest fiber in the world and identified by the United Nations as a future fiber due to its organic quality and sustainability. ⁠

I mixed the abaca into epoxy and I then twisted it into a shape reminiscent of ocean waves to create a maintenance-free substrate.⁠

Gladiolus, 24 x 24 x 2 inches, custom-made white-washed floater frame.

I don’t know about you, but I love the colors of August. The yellows are just a bit closer to gold, the reds more vibrant, and the purples have a tinge of violet to them. It’s no wonder the flower for August is the gladiolus. The gladiolus has long been a symbol of strength, victory, healing, and honor. It has also been associated with moral character, remembrance, and intelligence. For me, it’s a splash of delightful color during the dog days of summer. I loved using so much color for this painting as the temperature outside soared. I hope you enjoy this splash of color just as much.

Second edition of adding light to my epoxy and abaca ocean wave sculptures. This is my water tower sculpture. The light moves up the tower and fills the sculpture. Artists are like scientists, we love the discovery, the challenge. The final product is fun to see, but it’s the challenge that excites us.
