Catch the Light

24 x 36”, Oil on Linen

Catch the Light is an impressionist coastal seascape oil painting with a figure and dog walking along the shore, silver shimmer across the water, and luminous atmosphere.

That morning at the beach has stayed with me. The sunlight hit the water just right, turning the ocean into silver shimmer as waves rolled in. A few early risers, dogs chasing foam, and then — a man walking with his dog. A quiet, playful moment full of ease.

In that vast, open space, I felt both small and deeply connected — reminded of the abundance nature offers so freely: light, movement, and connection. Catch the Light was born from that mix of awe and gratitude.
