A Voice for the Individual
Whale Shark Diptych II, Oil on Canvas, 40 x 40 cm, 2023.
Because we are all unique- even the smallest fish is special in their own way. For a species like the Whale Shark, who is now considered endangered, scientists use the unique patterning of the Whale Shark’s skin to identify and study their lives and habits. The pattern I’ve chosen came from one individual animal and is meant to give the viewer a sense of the uniqueness of the individual and create more compassion for these majestic species who deserve a space in the Earth’s oceans.

Return to the Sea
Returning to the ocean is meant literally and metaphorically. Living abroad, I lost what inspired my art, the ocean. Over time, as I disidentified as a surfer, I became more aware of another world below the waves, just as precious and inspiring as the surface. Still very much in my heart, I’ve gained a new appreciation of this largely unexplored part of our world. Perhaps it is foresight, knowing that I will return to California that I’ve begun to create art after such a long absence. However, now the message is not simply one of beauty.
