The Cove
Painted from a clifftop path in high summer, when the water turns that improbable turquoise and the headland holds the last of the morning haze.
Approach
Art is the image and the story it carries.
I work in layers — light, memory, and the quiet edge where land meets sky. Each painting carries a place, a season, and the time it took to find the right silence on the surface.

Winter Reeds
A small winter study — frost in the air, the reeds holding their gold against a muted lake and distant blue hills.
