What I love most about this piece is how different it looked based on how it’s framed and the style of room it’s placed into. Which is your favorite? #transitionaldecor #traditionaldecor #artforthehome #coastaldecorating #traditionalartwork

Hydrangeas always remind me of summer and especially of the beach. The northern end of Ocean City, called the gardens, is filled with gorgeous homes and hydrangeas, lots of hydrangeas. With this one, I wanted to experiment with going a bit darker and moodier so that the highlights would stand out

Even though she’s far and the time difference makes it tough to call, we manage. We’re really close and she texts me and sends me pics and we manage to talk some too. I find that my most special memories are of things we’ve done with the kids or are about things like this that they’ve experienc

Here are some close ups of my latest. This one has a really personal story that I’ll tell you about tomorrow #artistunleashed #closeupshot #brushwork #oceanpainting #coastalart

This is a piece that I created a few years ago, back when I had my original account and actually had some followers (🤣😭). It sold really quickly and I don’t know what happened to the pictures, but this is the only one I have left 🤷🏼‍♀️. I like the sense of light in the clouds #smallartwork #se

This photo (link in bio) was taken while my husband and daughter were surfing at Waverly Beach in Ocean City, NJ. For years this area was our home away from home and the kids grew up surfing here. I usually sit on the beach and watch them and read my books. Sunset is always my favorite time. It’s

If you saw my other post, I bought new painting overalls and they didn’t stay new for long. You’d think I’d be organized being an engineer… but my painting space is a hot mess 😂 I barely have enough room for my palette, and yesterday I almost knocked the whole thing straight onto the carpet. I c

The clouds completely stole the show in this one. Last night, right after a thunderstorm rolled through, the sky looked unreal… so naturally I made my husband pull the car over so I could take about 40 photos before the light disappeared 😅 He was significantly less moved by the moment than I was.

The ocean inspires almost every painting I make — the light on the water, the quiet movement, the feeling of coming home to yourself. 🌊 I think that’s why I keep returning to the coast in my work. Not just because it’s beautiful, but because it feels peaceful in a way that stays with you. This l

For a long time, I thought the “artist” part of my life was behind me. Life got busy with careers, raising kids, caregiving, loss, and all the things that fill a season of life before you realize years have passed. But somehow, I kept finding my way back to painting — and especially back to the co

Soft sand dunes, ocean air, and the faintest hint of pink florals. This one is all about soft ocean breezes and spring flowers—those quiet coastal moments that don’t ask for attention but somehow hold it anyway. An 8x10 original, styled in a bookshelf or on a small wall because I love seeing
