Sea grass is a critical ecosystem that provides food and shelter for crustaceans, invertebrates, and acts as a nursery to juvenile fishes and sharks.

This painting was commissioned by the Penney family and was a really fun project. I wanted to capture a stylized pose of the sea turtle while showing the depth and detail of the Caribbean reef. Prints are available!

Progress pic of the seagrass flats painting I am currently working. Doing research for this one really gets me thinking of all the macro life that is dependent on this ecosystem. Seagrass is a crucial ecosystem to our oceans as they provide food and shelter for larval crustaceans, juvenile fishes, and sea turtles.

I spent all day yesterday in the studio working on this one! Thank you to @cathyjahn for allowing me to paint her Singer Island morning photo.

Painting of WWII Zero on the bottom of the ocean. Work in progress.
I thought I would share a couple progress pics of a commission I recently started. While I have lots more detail to add, you can start to see how this work is taking shape.
Juvenile parrotfish
This juvenile parrotfish darted past me during my last dive. I was fast enough to get a shot off and was lucky enough to freeze him in frame. It was a nice surprise.
