I'm super jazzed to have my piece 'Ornaments of Presence' selected for @jacksons_art_prize extended longlist. Fingers are crossed!

Itās been a monumental year, with a life changing summer at its centre, which Iām yet to fully process. Thanks so much to everyone who follows me and my work, and to everyone who uses their time to let good things shine.
Onto the next cool thing.

So jazzed to finally have my own little space dedicated to painting. Iām already feeling a shift in the air, in the process, and in the focusing of attention, and I know the work will be better for it.

My pieces for this years postcard show at @brassworksgallery opening 13th of December.
These are #oils painted on gesso primed 6x4 postcards, finished with gamvar gloss. Inspired by the view of the San Francisco Bay from a hidden stairway on a garden-covered hill, the early morning vista framed by brugmansia flowers and dragonflies dancing between the apricot trees. My memory still softly grasps that moment.
