I was awarded an artist residency on the US Coast Guard Cutter Stone. This painting is from images I collected during that time. We had several times in the evening when everyone on board was called to muster on the flight deck. It was not an emergency - just a drill. So, I was able to take in all the incredible beauty of the red lights on deck (so your pupils don't have to adjust to see the horizon when you look out at the sea at night) and the blue lights at the stairs leading down to the fan tail of the ship.
July 11, 2024 this piece was accepted into the U.S. Coast Guard Art Program Permanent Government Collection.
