Seabirds

Seabirds

Seabirds is a mixed-media coastal painting inspired by quiet shoreline moments and the gentle rhythm of the ocean. Two birds stand together at the water’s edge, their forms built from layered collage, painted textures, and subtle pattern — creating a balance of softness and structure throughout the composition.

Washes of turquoise, deep ocean blues, and sun-warmed neutrals move across the surface, echoing shifting tides and coastal light. Hand-cut paper elements and expressive mark-making add depth and dimension, while delicate details suggest wind, motion, and the ever-changing sea.

This piece reflects my love of combining abstraction with recognizable forms, allowing emotion and texture to lead the way. The pairing of the birds conveys connection and quiet companionship, making the painting feel both peaceful and alive.

Perfect for collectors drawn to modern coastal art, layered mixed media, and nature-inspired color palettes, Seabirds brings a sense of calm, warmth, and organic beauty to living rooms, bedrooms, or creative spaces.
