“In the Sun, I feel as one.”

Kurt Cobain

I’ve been in Portugal for a month now. Its been difficult emotionally and physically, I’m not going to lie. But when I wake up in this beautiful town, see the stunning sea and walk along the beach, I feel comforted and soooo peaceful and can feel myself healing in many ways.

I have two really sweet neighbors and I’ve been warmly welcomed. These gestures of kindness have meant so much to me 🙂

I’ve been moved to create a small series of paintings made on synthetic paper and water soluble pencils. They explore the magical landscapes and beauty of the sun and the sea. All of these were painted from life or from photos I’ve been taking on my daily walks.
