Perfect Pairs: A Quiet Escape
Weathered texture I loved in Amalfi alongside my lightly textured paintings Sightseeing No. 2 and Window Seat
Sometimes two things belong together — not just side by side, but in spirit. Perfect Pairs is my way of sharing small, curated combinations that echo a mood or a memory. Some pairs live only in paint; others weave in my travel photography, favorite books or films, or a brief glimpse of a moment that lingers in my mind. Each pairing is an invitation to see how art can hold space for the stories we carry.
A quiet escape, perfectly paired.
Sightseeing No. 2 and Window Seat are two small, lightly textured paintings that hold space for reflection, curiosity, and a sense of openness.
Together, they offer an invitation: to pause, to drift, to weave the spirit of travel into the corners of everyday life.
Small paintings have a beautiful way of creating intimate moments — on a shelf, above a desk, tucked into a favorite nook. These two belong together. A thoughtful pairing to remind you of journeys taken and those still to come.
Both works are part of my Destination Ongoing collection and available online or by private studio visit in Seattle.
Notes From The Studio is an occasional letter about new work and studio life. Subscribers receive a one-time collector’s credit toward their first original painting.
