A Day in the Glebe

SOLD

Acrylic on canvas 12″ x 12″

This series was the beginning of something I didn’t fully understand at the time.

I was still finding my way as an artist—learning, experimenting, and trying to figure out what I wanted to say. The Glebe felt like the perfect place to start. It’s familiar, full of life, and layered with quiet moments that are easy to overlook if you’re moving too fast.

So I slowed down.

I started noticing the way the water reflects the trees.
The curve of a path.
The way light hits a building or filters through branches.

Each painting became a small study of place—
not just what the Glebe looks like, but what it feels like to be there.

Looking back now, I can see this series for what it really was:
the beginning of my voice.

A moment where I stopped trying to paint things perfectly
and started painting what I was actually experiencing.

These pieces are simple. Honest. Observational.

And they remind me that sometimes the most important step isn’t creating something extraordinary—
it’s simply beginning.
