Monotype Series

Night Passage, Night Glow
Dark on dark texture of barely seen waves, contrasting with luminous moonlight; a still moment on a fall night when the distant horizon shimmers.

Drift, Strand
The feeling of waves in flowing patterns; the rise and fall of the sea; warm sand and slow incoming tide.

First Light
A distant glow of first light on a calm sea.
