Every painting begins outdoors and ends in oil — built slowly, in layers, until the light feels true.
Each piece starts with reference gathered while hiking, surfing, and exploring the coast — the source of every composition.
The canvas is mapped out — value, movement, and the big shapes of water, sky, and land laid down first.
Oils are built up over days, refining colour and depth until the surface holds real light and atmosphere.
Fine detail and final highlights bring the spray, the fur, or the petal into sharp, living focus.
