Work in progress! Still have several hours to go, but wanted to give y’all a peek. I decided to approach this piece like a video game. I want to create a piece that feels like the type of immersive puzzle games I love to watch and play. Moody, mysterious, dream like-I want that for this piece.
I’m so thrilled with the progress so far and the opportunity to try out some new techniques and skills! This one is going to be awesome!!
I was inspired by the shores of Oregon, rocky coastal games like Dredge, and dreams I’ve seen and wished I could visit!

There’s a spirituality to the West that’s hard to explain until you’ve stood beneath those enormous skies and felt the silence around you.
I’ve been missing that feeling—the space, the stillness, the sense of something ancient and bigger than myself. Painting this was my way of finding my way back. 🤎
