Kayaks, Shenorock Shore Club
This piece captures a still moment at the edge of the water—bright kayaks pulled onto shore, waiting for the next journey. It's not about action, but pause: the in-between space that feels familiar and full of presence.

“There’s something about kayaks out of water that always feels personal to me. They're shaped for movement, but completely still—and that balance is what I tried to paint.”
“Kayaks, Shenorock Shore Club” offers a tender glimpse into a familiar summer rhythm. The forms are softened, slightly abstracted, and grounded by neutral tones and gentle contrast. Painted from memory and reference, it reflects a view many at the club know well—a small cove where color meets sand and sky, briefly untouched. The energy is hushed, the palette sun-washed, and the gesture intentional, capturing not just the objects, but the moment before movement returns. It’s a painting about pause, and the quiet comfort of places that wait for us.
