Sound Proof

Piece description from the artist

Drawing directly from personal experiences, water is where I find peace and healing as a surfer during my years living on the North Shore of Oahu, hikes with my dog along the creeks, or meditating or sketching next to our backyard koi pond.

Like the flotsam and jetsam that wash ashore entangled and intertwined, I am interested in our interconnectedness and how our individual stories are part of something larger than self. This work is an exploration- and celebration of moments that are fleeting and full of grace.

This is a TurningArt exclusive limited edition print available in editions of 100.
