I’ve been enjoying a few days away for View’s Plein Air Paint Out, one of my favorite events of the year! This scene was captured on a bridge leading to The Sagamore, with finishing touches at a friend’s place. This little porch is the best place to slow down and enjoy working on a piece. I started on Wednesday afternoon, and was able to submit it last night for Saturday’s auction. Come join us this evening for a fun event, I can’t wait to see everyone’s work!

Painting today in beautiful Grand Teton National Park. My husband had me up early to catch the sunrise, and it did not disappoint one bit. We’ve seen incredible views, tons of wildlife, and I’m painting whenever I get the chance. More to come, soon.

"Grey Lady Day" found a new home at my recent reception with fellow Nantucket/Cape loving friends. I’ve rounded this little lighthouse for so many years, always with a penny in hand. Brant Point means so much to so many people, and I loved trying to capture it. Starting as Plein air and finishing up in the studio, it was truly enjoyable to watch these big clouds come to life.

On view at the Kirkland Town Library through June 30. While this piece is sold, I have a few variations in progress. ⚓️ 🌊

"To the Top" – a painting inspired by my friend ’s beautiful photograph of her son. Throughout this collection, I dove deep into so many greens, finding purples and yellows, crimsons and blues. After only painting Adirondack rocks in Plein air, I loved taking the time to sit with them and develop the colors and textures that make up the stone.

Thank you so much Sierra for the inspiration and for becoming a collector, it means the world to me and I’m so grateful.

To the Top is on view through June 30 at the .

"Sankaty Sunset" – this oil painting from my recent collection, Head in the Clouds, captured an incredible sunset at one of my favorite places, Sankaty Head Lighthouse. While I always love creating little paintings and thumbnails during our visits, I knew this sunset had to be one that made it out of my sketchbook. At 24”x36”, it’s my largest painting and I poured countless hours into these grand clouds.

Available at the Kirkland Town Library through June 30, and then moving to The Studios at West Park Row.

Join me tonight, Thursday, June 4 from 6-7:30 p.m. for an Opening Reception of Head in the Clouds – A collection of paintings honoring the skies above us.

Painted in the quiet after loss, this body of work is a reflection on the vast skies that surround us and the comfort they now hold. Each piece is an exploration of clouds, light, and atmosphere – an attempt to capture the ever-changing beauty overhead and the stillness it offers below. These paintings grew from a new awareness of looking up, finding connection, memory, and meaning in the skies above.

This is my very first solo show and I’m thrilled to share this with all of you. If you can’t make it today, please stop by the library anytime this month to view this collection.
