I painted "Mountain Reflection Garden" to portray a quiet alpine valley where tall evergreens stand mirrored in a clear, winding stream. I placed patches of pink, purple, yellow, and white wildflowers against the lush greens and rocky slopes to add contrast and warmth.
I painted "Mountain Meadow Pathway" to depict a winding trail through a riot of alpine wildflowers that leads to a quiet lake framed by tall evergreens and distant peaks.
This piece would sit nicely in a room that needs a window to the outdoors.

Here's my latest piece, "Ocean's Embrace." 🌊✨ I wanted to convey the peaceful meeting of waves and sand under a sky filled with soft clouds. The blues and whites create a calming atmosphere, perfect for those moments when you need a little escape.
