I started a series of paintings for a solo show, a selection of portraits and landscapes that celebrate out world.  Inspired by the sea and the mountains that surround it, I wanted to create memories and days that we remember forever. A place that helps keep us calm and optimistic. As we float on the waters surface we become a part of it. Our worries wash away with the tide. It is something to remember those little beautiful feelings that make us glad we exist.  I wanted to feel the flow of the water and wind and translate this onto canvas.
