Brand New Day

20" x 16" Acrylic, oil pastel, charcoal on gallery-depth canvas.

This piece is inspired by the anticipation of a brand-new day and the hope for a fresh start. It is part of the Healing Waters collection of soothing coastal landscapes focused on soft and relaxing colors.

When I think about 'healing waters,' I think of lots of aquas, blues, and greens. But the magentas and yellows are uplifting and cheerful. Part of healing is laughter, a smile, and hope, so those colors represent all of that.
