Rooted Light

12” × 36” | Original Mixed-Media Painting

Rooted Light explores the quiet persistence of the natural world. A delicate botanical form rises through layers of turquoise, weathered cream, deep blue, and earthy rust, while a faint compass fragment suggests direction, memory, and the passage of time.

Built through layers of texture, translucent color, and softly worn markings, the painting has the feeling of an artifact shaped by water and age. Its tall, narrow format brings a graceful architectural presence to spaces where a traditional horizontal painting may not fit.

Presented in a warm gold floater frame and ready to hang.

These titles also work beautifully together: Rooted Light holds the earthbound, botanical energy, while Sunward Flight carries the eye upward and outward.

Sunward Flight

12” × 36” | Original Mixed-Media Painting

In Sunward Flight, a solitary bird and a glowing rust-colored sun, suspended above an atmospheric passage of turquoise, cream, and warm earth tones. Faint handwritten fragments emerge and disappear beneath the surface, suggesting messages carried across time.

Layered textures and distressed passages give the painting the character of an ancient, weathered document, while the upward movement of the bird introduces a feeling of freedom, possibility, and quiet determination.

Wing Prayer
12” × 12”
Original Mixed Media Painting

Wing Prayer celebrates the delicate beauty and quiet energy of the natural world. A luminous dragonfly hovers beneath a softly glowing orb, its translucent blue-violet wings creating a striking contrast against a richly layered field of chartreuse, gold, and flashes of violet.

Slender botanical forms rise through the composition while fragments of handwriting and weathered marks drift beneath the surface. Layers of paint, texture, and abrasion give the piece a sense of age and history, as though the image has been discovered rather than newly created.

There is something both earthly and ethereal about Wing Prayer—a small moment of stillness, transformation, and light captured between one movement and the next.

Marsh Light
12” × 12”
Original Mixed Media Painting

Marsh Light captures the hushed atmosphere of wetlands at the edge of day, when water and sky reflect one another and familiar forms seem to emerge slowly from the landscape.

Built through layers of color, texture, and weathered marks, the surface suggests a place shaped by water and time. Subtle fragments of script and organic imagery appear and disappear within the painting, creating a sense of history beneath the surface rather than a literal view of the marsh.

Quiet and contemplative, Marsh Light is less about a specific landscape than the feeling of being there—the stillness, reflected light, and fleeting beauty found where land and water meet.

Hidden Meadow
12” × 12”
Original Mixed Media Painting

Hidden Meadow evokes a landscape discovered rather than described—a quiet place where warm earth, fading light, and traces of the natural world overlap.

A solitary jackrabbit emerges from layers of rust, coral, ochre, and soft turquoise, sitting beneath a weathered golden orb. Delicate botanical forms, fragments of handwriting, and wandering linear marks move in and out of the surface, giving the painting the feeling of an old field journal or a memory preserved over time.

The rabbit remains still and watchful while the richly layered ground seems to shift around it. Hidden Meadow is an intimate celebration of those fleeting encounters with the wild—the moment you notice something quietly watching you from a place you almost passed by.

Shore Light
12” × 12”
Original Mixed Media Painting

Shore Light captures that quiet moment when water, sky, and light seem to merge. Layers of luminous blue, turquoise, and weathered indigo create an atmospheric shoreline, while a solitary gull stands beneath a pale, glowing moon.

Faint script, botanical forms, and distressed markings emerge through the painted surface like fragments of memory—suggesting a place that feels both familiar and imagined. Subtle warm undertones break through the cool blues, adding depth and the sense of a surface shaped by time and weather.

Part painting and part visual artifact, Shore Light reflects the stillness of the coast without describing a specific place. It is a small, intimate work about light, water, and the quiet presence of the natural world.

Waters Remembered Totem Series

$900.00 each

Tall, slender and richly layered, the Waters Remembered Totem Series brings together abstract surface, natural imagery and fragments of imagined history. Weathered fields of turquoise, rust, mineral white and soft gray are layered with faded script, map-like markings, compass forms and traces that suggest something discovered rather than newly made.

Select pieces incorporate a solitary heron or jackrabbit, emerging quietly from the layered surface. Others remain entirely abstract, allowing color, texture and fragmented markings to carry the narrative. Each totem is designed to stand beautifully on its own while also relating naturally to the others.

The Construction

Each totem is created on a professional-grade wood panel, providing a substantial, rigid surface for layers of acrylic, collage, texture, glazing, sanding and mark-making.

At 2.75 inches deep, the panels have a sculptural presence on the wall. The painted surface continues around the deep sides, allowing the work to be displayed without framing and giving each piece the feeling of an art object as much as a painting.

The Vision

The Waters Remembered Totem Series explores the intersection of nature, memory and time.

Turquoise suggests water, sky and oxidized surfaces, while warm rust and earth tones bring a sense of age and history. Beneath and within these color fields are fragments of maps, handwriting, numbers, compass markings and distressed textures—visual traces that feel as though they have accumulated over many years.

The heron and jackrabbit become quiet inhabitants of this imagined landscape rather than traditional wildlife subjects. Partially integrated into the surrounding surface, they appear almost like memories or drawings preserved within an old artifact.

Dimensions & Details

• 5 × 60 × 2.75 inches — $900.00

• Professional wood panel

• Mixed media

• Acrylic, collage, texture and layered mark-making

• Extra-deep painted sides

• Ready to hang

• No framing required

Versatility in Curation

The unusual proportions make these pieces especially versatile for spaces where conventional artwork can be difficult to place.

Individually, a single totem can transform a narrow wall, column, entryway or architectural transition.

As a pair, two complementary pieces create a strong vertical conversation—whether pairing the heron and jackrabbit or two abstract compositions.

As a grouping, three or four totems become a larger installation, with alternating turquoise and rust creating rhythm across the wall.

Because every totem is a complete composition, collectors can begin with one piece and add additional works over time, creating a grouping unique to their space.

The Crossing

Series: Between Worlds

Medium: Acrylic on Panel

Dimensions: 24 x 36 inches (Framed)

Visual Narrative

The Crossing is a striking mixed-media exploration of transition and movement. Set against a heavily textured, ethereal sky of distressed blues and whites, the piece captures a moment of migration—or perhaps a spiritual passage.

A singular, large crow dominates the left foreground, its silhouette sharp and detailed as it glides across a luminous, gold-leaf sun. Behind it, a scattered "murder" of smaller birds trails off into the distance, creating a sense of depth and directional energy that pulls the viewer's eye across the horizon.

Artistic Elements

• The Sky: The background features a complex, layered application of acrylics. The palette of sky blue, cerulean, and pale cream is applied with a palette knife or scraping technique, revealing underlying layers and creating a weathered, "between-worlds" atmosphere.

• The Landscape: The bottom third of the panel depicts a grounded, earthy terrain in rich ochres, burnt sienna, and deep reds. This warm, terrestrial base provides a heavy contrast to the airy, fractured sky above.

• The Celestial Focal Point: The gold-toned orb acts as the compositional anchor. Its shimmering texture suggests a bridge between the physical and the metaphysical, serving as the literal "crossing" point for the avian subjects.

Interpretation

True to its place in the Between Worlds series, The Crossing sits at the intersection of the known and the unknown. The crow—often a symbol of prophecy, change, and the messenger between realms—leads a collective journey toward an uncertain but inevitable destination. The contrast between the solid earth and the disintegrating sky reflects the tension of being in a state of flux.

18 × 24 on panel framed. A quiet landscape suspended between what was and what is becoming, where light gathers and the path gently opens.

Strata Totem Series

Elevate your space with the Strata Totem Series, a collection of striking vertical abstracts designed to command attention through unique dimensions. These pieces function as "architectural jewelry" for the home—perfect for narrow columns, entryways, or as a rhythmic installation when grouped together.

The Construction

Each piece in this series is meticulously built on professional-grade, high-quality wood panels. This solid substrate provides a perfectly flat, warp-resistant surface that supports the heavy textural elements and metallic leafing. The narrative continues beyond the face of the work, as the art wraps seamlessly around the extra-deep 2.75" sides, giving the series a bold, sculptural presence that traditional canvas cannot match.

The Vision

The series explores the concept of "strata"—the layering of time, texture, and color. Each piece is a rich tapestry of deep teals, cerulean blues, and misty aquas, punctuated by bold applications of gold leaf and intricate textural patterns. The verticality draws the eye upward, mimicking the natural stacking of earth and atmosphere.

• Lengths: 48-inch and 60-inch options.

• Profile: 2.75-inch deep-profile gallery wrap on wood.
