Tides of Rum is a textured seascape where abstract waves meet playful suggestion. Hints of sailboats dance across the canvas, as if caught mid-regatta on a rum-soaked sea. A nod to nautical nostalgia with a splash of spontaneity. 40 x 60 x 1.5 Acrylic, Modeling Paste

Add a Little More Jazz is a dynamic interplay of acrylic and oil pastel, capturing the essence of movement, spontaneity, and expressive rhythm. The composition feels like a visual improvisation — fluid yet intentional, with soft washes of color blending seamlessly into bolder, more defined marks. Hints of blue, soft neutrals, and touches of vibrant accents create a sense of atmospheric depth, reminiscent of a jazz melody floating through space. The layered textures, achieved through both the smooth flow of acrylic and the tactile energy of oil pastel, give the piece a nuanced complexity, much like the interplay of instruments in a jazz ensemble. This painting invites viewers to lean in, to explore its subtle shifts in tone and texture, and to experience the balance between structure and spontaneity. It embodies the mood of jazz — unpredictable, expressive, and full of soul. Two Piece Set Two 48 x 36 x 1.5 canvases Acrylic, Oil, Oil Pastel Framed

Lookout Cabin brings to life the magic of a real alpine hideaway in Park City, Utah. Inspired by my favorite après-ski retreat, this piece blends cold powder runs with warm fireside laughs. Layers of icy blues, snowy whites, and textured strokes capture the thrill of the slopes and the chill of fresh mountain air. A cozy cabin peeks through the drifts, while Red Pine gondolas glide through the flurry. 40 x 30 x 1.5 Acrylic, Oil Pastel, Modeling Paste Framed in Metal Silver Floating

Serendipitous evokes a sense of tranquility and boundless possibility. The soft pastel tones of blues and pinks create a dreamlike, ethereal atmosphere, where the sky seems to blend effortlessly into the land. The subtle, abstract forms on the horizon are reminiscent of distant cliffs or clouds, leaving the viewer to interpret the scene. Delicate touches of texture hint at organic elements, while the faint silhouettes of birds in flight give a feeling of freedom and serendipity, as if they were caught in the perfect moment of exploration and chance. This piece speaks to the beauty of unexpected discoveries and the quiet moments of magic that unfold in nature. 40 x 30 Acrylic, Oil Pastel Framed in Metal Silver Floating
