About
I like to wander around (& nap) on the beach, garden, paint, take photos, make objects, eat veggies & chocolate, sleep in, read, dream, & contemplate my future & the future of the planet.
I am currently living the simple life in a small town on California’s central coast surrounded by hills near my favorite thing, the big, blue ocean, which provides me with clarity & inspiration.
My focus is on ocean & travel inspired art tinged with a bit of the human condition’s irony.
