About This Image

Years ago, I ventured out west every so briefly and saw the Pacific Ocean for the first time. With some irony, I had seen the coast of Scotland already and I remember quite clearly thinking that the rugged California coast bore a striking similarity. I spent the day bouncing from beach to beach and stumbling over rocks for a better view of the sea in one place or another north of Santa Cruz. As with any adventure, my time exploring the that little stretch coast of the Pacific Ocean came to an end. And it’s one that I have never forgotten. Seeing the beautiful Pacific Ocean stretching across the horizon beneath glorious skies was a fantastic conclusion to an amazing day. As the sun fell over the horizon, the vibrant colors that filled the skies and reflected in the seas was just fantastic.

Those beautiful memories of my first encounter with that distant sea were on my mind as I crafted this particular artwork. In fact, I used the color palette from photos from that Pacific ocean sunset to make my color choices in this piece. Of course, my color palette was limited only by my imagination, but as I’ve looked at images over the year, never mind created them, I’ve become aware of how often we react favorably to the combinations we find naturally such as the sunset skies. So, it was a natural jumping off point in this abstract artwork that is loosely based on that beautiful memory of seeing the Pacific Ocean the first time. The blues and the pinks and reds mingling with the golds until it reaches the silvery sands of the beach. This is the sea of my memory and that distant horizon is not just the horizon of the Pacific Ocean but a metaphor for life and the horizon we always see before us.

I would love to hear if this artwork reminds you of your own vibrant memories of seeing the sea for the first time? Or maybe it speaks to you of the beauty of life and our individual futures? I do hope you might take a moment to share your thoughts with me!

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
