The Cleansing Wave Froth


18 x 24"  acrylic on deep canvas   $350.00  sea

Hi everyone!  Do you enjoy the sea?  The sound of the crashing waves, the roll back and wet sandy beach, the feeling of salt spray on your body?
This is a very spiritual, cleansing painting.  A bit abstract, a bit contemporary.  

Every drop, every splashy frothy blast of sea foam comes down in seconds.
Beady eyed crabs, mussels,  and tiny crustaceans grab on tight to their rock of choice.  
Water is powerful.  Water is the sign  of the holy spirit at baptism. We die to ourselves and become clean of heart and Jesus' child forever.
We experience this tumultuous life at times, forgetting that it is okay to let go and let the waves wash us again, bury us and let us float, sputtering to the top with a new life and forgiveness, joy, and grace.

"Shrimp Shape"

4.75" x 4"  collage and acrylic  SOLD

A small colorful contemporary abstract.  My monitor shows it slightly brighter than the painting actually is.  The colors are truly lively and brilliant jewel tones.  It will liven any corner when matted and framed.  I don't create many of these, but I sure have a ball putting them together.
