Mini #24, Ecola State Park, Oregon Coast, Acrylic, 2x3 in, 2019

Since I was a kid, the Oregon Coast has been a special place. I love the changeability of the coast from sunny and blue to stormy and gray in minutes at certain times of year. When I am away from the ocean, I feel land locked and a bit claustrophobic. I crave the openness of the water and sky, the freshness of the wind, the smell of the sea, and the call of the birds. I find the crashing waves terrible and beautiful in the same moment, truly sublime.
