My biggest painting ever!
This large Paso Robles vineyard scene captures the beauty and atmosphere of wine country, with fog gently rolling over the mountains and warm orange tones glowing through the vines.
I wanted to capture that magical feeling of a Paso Robles morning, the quiet landscape, the misty mountains, and the warmth of the vineyards.
This wonderful, and very challenging, commission came from a new collector in Paso Robles, California. They had a clear vision of what they wanted, which made the process so enjoyable. The collector even suggested adding the road you see in the painting, and I think it was exactly the right touch!
I have started working on to large commissions for a well-known hospital in Santa Barbara, California. One of the paintings is almost done and is my largest painting ever! 48”x72”
I am thrilled with this amazing opportunity. I wish that my art brings joy and hope to the patients and family members that visit the hospital.
I will keep updating the images so you can see the process.

3 x 4 ft (0.91 x 1.22 m) Oil on canvas
This painting was inspired by individuals with disabilities who continue to embrace life—and the ocean—with incredible spirit and determination. Many continue to surf, adapting and thriving through challenges. Their courage deeply moved me, and I wanted to celebrate that in this painting.
To create an accurate depiction of the prosthetic surfing leg, I reached out to Zach Samalonis from Swell, who generously shared his designs with me. His innovative work developing prosthetics specifically for surfers helped bring authenticity and depth to the piece. I’m so grateful for his support.
4 x 6 ft (1.22 x 1.83 m), Oil on canvas
Commissioned by Cottage Hospital in Goleta, Santa Barbara for their Outpatient Physical Therapy Unit.
This painting depicts a young mother and her two children stepping into the ocean together—a simple, joyful moment that speaks to connection, resilience, and love.
I wanted to capture the warmth of family, the healing power of nature, and the quiet strength we find in being together.
