fly over


Last week I created two small paintings with photographs and materials I found on our 3-day sailing trip along the Rhode Island coast last summer. It's fun to experiment with hand lettering and script painting, but sometimes I feel like creating simple, semi-abstract, layered landscapes does the best job of conveying depth and a nostalgic sense of time and place.

Fly Over No. 1 and No. 2 are both 6"x12" on gallery wrapped canvas, for sale in my shop.

  1. Oh this one is great. Nice contrast. I could see it hanging in a beach house. Love your layering!

  2. Would you ever consider selling phone covers with your art on it Mae? i would love to be able to carry something around with me all the time with one of your works on it! :)

    1. Hey Lauren, thanks for the compliment :) I have thought about creating phone covers but unfortunately most of my work isn't the right dimensions... much of the detail/text would get cut off. Maybe I'll paint something specifically for a phone case in the future.
