Sea Lantern 2
This was one of my first larger scale oil paintings. I had been painting mostly in acrylic and I just discovered water soluble oils and fell in love with the texture of the paint on canvas. It opened the door for me to play with large swaths of deep colors and textured clouds. Sea Lantern Balance is inspired from photographs of night fishing in China. I just had to render the bold streak of orange sky shot through the dark purple sky and light blue clouds that framed these returning fishermen. The colors are dark, but rich and balanced, and surprisingly calming.

Welcome to my World of Women and Waves! Ready to dive into a world of seascapes and real women enjoying whatever they damn well please? I'm an oil painter who loves color and movement and all things beachy! I'm a feminist with 3 awesome daughters, 2 chaotic pets, and 1 talented, author husband. I drink a ton of black coffee, and walk a bunch of dogs to clear my head. I find myself thinking "Whattheeverlovin'fuck?" a lot, sooo...learning to meditate, keeping the gratitude journal, living with "progress not perfection" as a motto in my studio! My art concerns: I was raised in a small village at the edge of a fierce sea and to me, sweeping ocean horizons speak of escape, change, and freedom. My figurative and portrait work tend to invoke similar themes through feminism, climate, and immigration. In all of my work I am constantly looking to capture the energy, movement, and intensity of our ever-shifting world and the women in it!
