Welcome

Welcome to my studio!

Some of the work you will find here on this site is old, some is new. Some of the older work is from 2010 and came out of a summer I spent in between the Dominican Republic and the fall in the UP of Michigan. The story is I had just finished my thesis in the DR and drove up from Florida to Michigan with my Jeep and my cat to finish my MPH remotely. I spent that time studying for my final exam and painting in my brother-in-law's kitchen. It was the first time in a long time, I had some free time to myself. My masters program, work, and traveling has kept me from developing myself as an artist as much as I would like in the past few years. 

Cut to 2013, I'm living in Southern Australia and now have a small art studio. I'm excited to announce the opening of my online shop featuring my most recent acrylic on canvas series, Fresh Air, inspired from my recent travels to Hawaii, Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand. The opening of this shop has been years in the making.

New stuff is always in the works and is up as soon as I finish it. I'm excited to be working on some larger pieces this time around. This site is a work in progress. Always. I like it that way. If you are interested in purchasing any of the pieces, please visit my shop. If you are interested in purchasing a commissioned piece, please email me at {hippiebythesea (at) gmail (dot) com}. Everything is totally possible.
