I live on the coast of North Carolina so I am often walking along the beach. The photo that was the inspiration for this painting was taken on a late afternoon. I was struck by the power in the crashing waves as evidenced by the sound. The water was an unusual shade of green. I have noticed that the ocean can be turquoise blue or it can be black, or [...]
I live on the coast of North Carolina so I am often walking along the beach. The photo that was the inspiration for this painting was taken on a late afternoon. I was struck by the power in the crashing waves as evidenced by the sound. The water was an unusual shade of green. I have noticed that the ocean can be turquoise blue or it can be black, or anywhere in between.

This is a one-of-a-kind acrylic painting, sealed with a satin varnish.

While some artists may view the world as horrible and ugly, I do not

like to paint "ugly" art.  Like literature, I believe that art should

be a form of "escape" from the ugliness of the world. I like to evoke a pleasant

emotion through my art (such as a happy memory or a sense of deja vu)....

I also like to travel-I am inspired by colorful Caribbean sunsets,

palm trees blowing in the breeze, ocean tides, Tuscany hill towns, or even a dead tree hanging onto the side of a cliff at the Grand Canyon ....

 I seldom paint people in my art as I like the viewers to imagine

themselves in my place, seeing what I am seeing and feeling what I am

feeling.  I enjoy the solitude of a beautiful sunset or ocean waves roaring to the shore.

I married in 2013 and moved  from Raleigh to the coastal North Carolina.  My

husband is a building contractor and built a beautiful art studio for

me in our home  and allowed me to "retire" at an early age from my

life as a paralegal.

I attended East Carolina University School of Art in Greenville, NC,

as a painting major with a drawing minor.
