Summer Tide was created after days spent by the sea on British Columbia's Sunshine Coast — a place where rocky shores meet clear, living water, and the air carries both salt and warmth. The artist was drawn to the rhythm of the waves and the changing colors beneath the sun — moments when the ocean seems alive with its own quiet light.
The layered texture mirrors the surface of moving water — fluid yet grounded, filled with subtle currents and reflections. Each brushstroke holds a memory of those coastal days: the laughter around the campsite, the sound of wind through evergreens, and the endless conversation between light and tide.
Through this work, the artist offers a glimpse of summer's calm energy — the feeling of standing close to the ocean, surrounded by its depth, warmth, and quiet strength.
