“Red sky at night, sailors delight. Red sky at morning, sailor take warning” - Unknown

Red Sky at Night is a whimsical tale that unfolds as a couple share a romantic embrace, dressed to the nines in blue and ivory, caps perched jauntily on their heads.

Behind them, an abstract port city shimmers under a sunset so vivid and vibrant, you'd think the sky was a canvas itself. The mix of warm and cool tones in the artwork is like a visual tango, a dance of colors that makes the heart skip a beat.

Crafted with a unique blend of acrylic, ink, and digital collage, "Red Sky at Night" invites you to get lost in this charming nautical narrative.

My mixed media paintings consist of acrylic paint and digital collage. They are painted on museum quality archival paper and then laminated to a cradled wood panel, varnished, waxed and then framed in a black floater frame. Each piece begins as a digital study on an iPad where the basic composition and coloring is determined before the hand painted original is started.
