The Moon’s Pull, 36” round diameter, acrylic on maple wood panel, 2022
“The Moon’s Pull is a celebration of the local biodiversity of life found in the tide pools of Duxbury Reef, CA. Around the edges of the round painting, a colorful kaleidoscope of intertwining seaweed dances in the foreground. Behind the seaweed, ribbons of bull kelp sway against a starry night sky. Interspersed amongst the seaweed and kelp feature an array of native species that rely on them to survive, like juvenile octopus and nudibranchs. “

The Moons’ Pull was on display in the “Kelp!” exhibit at 836m Gallery in San Francisco, on view through December 8th, 2022.
