Path to the Sea is that familiar moment when you move through the dunes and the air shifts - the light softens, the grasses lean with the wind, and you know the shoreline is just beyond. Built with layered neutrals and coastal greens, this piece feels calm, grounded, and quietly dimensional, designed to live beautifully in both warm and cool interiors.
Each original painting is a story of the coast - sun-warmed skies, wind-swept marshes, and quiet, timeless beauty. Inspired by Charleston's Lowcountry and the coastal rhythms that stretch from Charleston to Nantucket, my work captures the feeling of being present in a place you love.
Every piece is crafted with layered color, texture, and depth to bring a sense of calm, warmth, and connection to your home. Whether you are a Charleston local or a collector drawn to the sea, these heirloom paintings reflect the essence of coastal living - elegant, soulful, and enduring.

FAQ ▾
Will the painting be framed?
This piece is created on 2-inch thick cradled wood and is designed to be displayed unframed for a clean, modern presentation. You can also frame it if you prefer a more traditional finish.
Can I commission a piece with a similar feeling?
Each original is one of a kind - no two pieces are ever the same. I do accept a limited number of commissions each season and can create a new work with a similar palette and atmosphere while remaining entirely your own. If you would like to begin the conversation, you can
