Forevermore
2022, oil sticks, oil, collage, resin on panel, 96 x 60”

For 25 years, I stood at the same kitchen window, watching the sun set over the Hudson Valley. Each evening brought a variation—lavender clouds, golden bursts, deepening blues—and without knowing it, those colors, that rhythm, etched themselves into me. Forevermore is the culmination of all those sunsets layered into one.

This painting isn’t a single view—it’s every view. The light shifting over seasons, the sky folding into the mountains, the feeling of being held by a place that changed me. The surface is built in layers—collage, oil, resin—echoing the way memory stacks and softens over time.

It’s not just about looking back. It’s about carrying that beauty forward. Permanently burned into my vision, and now, into this painting.
