From an original photograph taken in 2017 on the May River town docks. When you live near the ocean, some mornings are naturally trapped in mist. Fog rolls in and mutes both sight and sound.

From an original photograph taken in 2017 on the May River town docks. When you live near the ocean, some mornings are naturally trapped in mist. Fog rolls in and mutes both sight and sound. Near my hamlet is a long dock on the May River. One early morning this mist draped itself silently over the town. It was both heavy and beautiful. I know people like that.
I grabbed my camera and wandered off into the ethereal landscape. These boats and the flat still river... none of it looked real. It was as if the weight of the Fog had ironed the water and cast a spell over the shrimp boats. Silent ghost boats. The muted still water and the faded colors are almost echoing the poem by Graeme Edge in his verse Late Lament at the end of Night in White Satin.
Breathe deep the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room…
Red is grey and yellow-white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion.

This is art for the tastemakers: the interior designers who sculpt sanctuaries, the collectors who seek soul in their walls. My work draws from a tradition of elegance—think the poised restraint of early pictorialism, kissed by modern clarity. Here, every piece is destined to elevate spaces and spark conversation or create a haven of loveliness. My art is for people like me—those who laugh at life’s messes and still crave beauty that lasts.

I hope my art inspires people to put more real Art in their homes rather than cheap decor from from Amazon, Walmart, or Temu. I hope it inspires more people to collect and invest in Fine Art. I hope they begin to start art collections for their grand children and giving Fine Art as wedding gifts, graduation gifts, and other meaningful milestones.  

Because, as she says, "I find the stories of art collectors are intrinsically part of the pieces they collect. It is the artists that tell all our stories. That makes art into a creatively forged kinship between artist and collector. So, in all my work, I hope people see my work as a mirror of their own fineness and value. It's really yours. I made it for you."
