Angles of Light / SOLD
Oil on canvas, 36x48
This painting started with watching the light as sunset and sunrise came over the hill and touched the driftwood on the beach, inch by inch. I love to combine the geometry of simple shapes with the changeable magic of light and color. I laid down layers of paint over the underlying structure of lines, letting the paint drip and blend where it wanted to go. These structures are like portals into our own imagination; doorways to a place of inner transformation.

From my small studio at the Friday Harbor Atelier, in the small harbor town (yes, Friday Harbor) on San Juan Island, I paint abstract landscape paintings with a touch of sacred geometry. I love to go to the beach at the San Juan Island National Historical Park called South Beach, with a unique 2-mile beach covered with old-growth driftwood. I take photographs and sketch the fascinating forms there. Then I go back to the studio and work from those primary documents and allow the painting to emerge. I hope my paintings can transport you into a space of imaginative form, color and spirit.
