I love the perspective of this first shot. I know the angle isn’t a normal view, if you had this hung in your house, but I just think it’s so badass and cool and it’s my account so I can post it and y’all will just have to deal 😆😜. But really, thanks for all the love you’ve shown me on this piece so far. I’m really proud of it and can’t wait to make more versions of this design. 💙🌾

Pregnancy sleep = 😫. Silver lining, a sunrise walk with Sullie and Zoey.

Anyone else deal with terrible sleep in the third trimester? It`s been brutal. Combo of overall anxiety/mind racing, digestion discomfort and having to pee all the time! 😐

TREASURE HUNT • Acrylic • 24” x 48”

This painting conveys a moment I captured of our son during one of our family beach walks, as we looked for nature’s treasures at low tide. He had broken his arm at the beginning of summer and wasn’t able to participate in his favorite summer activities such as sports and jumping waves in the ocean. As a parent, it was difficult watching him miss out, but I was constantly amazed at his positivity and resilience. Watching him in this moment made me think about how we are always searching and the many places our life’s journey takes us.

Spanish moss drapes the live oak trees that are ubiquitous to the Edisto Island area. Did you know that Edisto gets its name from the native Edistow people? The Edistow Native Americans were a sub tribe of the Cusabo indians, a group of Native Americans who lived along the Atlantic coast in South Carolina.

⏰ Best time of the day to visit: Stop by mid-morning. That way you can explore the island, grab lunch, and stay for the amazing sunset if you choose.

🏖️ Things to do while there: Edisto Environmental Learning Center, Boneyard Beach, Scott Creek Inlet, Big Bay Creek, SeaCow Eatery.

☀️ Things to visit in the area: Jungle Road Park, Bay Creek Park, Otter Islands, Spanish Mount Point.
