There is something incredibly intimate about creating a work of art for the heart of your own home. 🤍
This is the first piece I created for our new home in Rhode Island, and the first artwork painted in my new Providence studio.
I created it especially for my kitchen and dining room—a space that means so much to me because I absolutely love cooking for my family. I find myself in the kitchen two or three times a day, and for me, cooking is another form of creativity, love, and connection.
Our kitchen overlooks the most magnificent garden I have ever seen, filled with flowers and constantly changing colors. Beside it is our dining table with its custom banquette, where so many of our family moments happen.
And that presented me with a beautiful challenge: how do you create an artwork that can converse with a garden that is already a work of art?
I kept looking outside—to the sky, the light, the flowers—and then toward another place where I feel most connected: the ocean.
The beach has always been one of my favorite places to be. It is where I feel peaceful, present, and deeply connected with the Divine. So instead of competing with the garden, I decided to bring the horizon home.
I studied the sky and ocean again and again, finding the blues and subtle tonalities that would speak to the colors of our kitchen, dining table, and the nature just beyond the windows.

A piece about the things I love most: family, home, cooking, nature, the ocean, and our connection with the Divine. 🌊🩵🙏🏻
Created with so much love in Providence, Rhode Island.
