Great Big Sea

The compelling seascape that i am witness to now on a daily basis has found its way into my work. I have been obsessed with water and things that swim and move about in it for the past many months. A once in a lifetime adventure to the Galapagos Islands this summer has also helped to fuel my fire. I love the sense of mystery and movement that the sea holds, the possibility for coming upon the most alien and exotic creatures and the connectedness of it all below the surface. It is a subject that I once felt I would never attempt to portray, being a prairie girl, but it is big and strong and its pull is tremendous, a force so much greater than me.

I am delighted to have been invited to exhibit this new work at the Blue Moon Estate Winery at Nature’s Way farm for the month of October in conjunction with their Oyster Extravaganza Full Moon dinner. Hope you can make it out there!
