Here is a few of my prints (multiple media types) that I have available for sale - at a HUGELY discounted rate! They have been used in art shows or in consignment displays. Since they are technically "used"I am offering a steep discount on them but they will come signed if desired. They are being sold "as is" with most being in amazing conditions - but if there are any imperfections I am very transparent on them.


I want to also offer you the story behind each one <3

  1. Roger's Sunset

This one is one of my most sentimental prints - ever. Typing its story is one I have never done nor even shared before. In 2023 I lost my godfather, Roger, to a long battle with MS. Even though the inevitable was coming his passing was a shock and difficult to fully process. The day after getting the news I set out for a day of hiking/snowshoeing to be alone and mourn in a sense, but very unexpectedly ended up with a friend joining. The trip alone had its hiccups due to a massive snowfall we had seen earlier that week. With that, it delayed our trip out longer than anticipated. Being with a friend, even though she never knew of the sadness I was experiencing, was comforting. On the trek back to the vehicles, we were greeted with the prettiest lighting. The last bit of winter sunlight was hitting the snow perfectly creating a sparkling effect that made the entire landscape shimmer. While experiencing a short bit of peace I turned around and saw the entire sky behind me lit up in a soft pink as if my godfather was giving me his last "goodbyes". I hope my print brings the viewer a feeling of peace.

2. Lights over Cook Inlet


My most popular aurora photo - and frankly one of my personal favorites. I have this same print sitting on my dresser and wake up to it every morning. In April of 2023 the Kenai Peninsula was greeted with one of the most spectacular lights shows I have ever seen. This show lasted ALL night, but I eventually went home around 3:30am. I couldn't go to bed afterwards, the shear excitement of what I saw kept me up and all I wanted to do was edit. That night standing on the beaches of the Cook Inlet were freezing to say the least. I stood there for hours shivering but too mesmerized to leave. I watched the lights dance with the sunset over the Chigmit Mountains, reflect in the frozen waters, and make friends with the moon. In all, I hope this print brings you the same level of excitement and wonder as it did me.

3. Scavangers of Ninilchik


Summer of 2023 had its joys - one being one of the first razor clams opening in YEARS. We set out early on a summer morning with the landscape covered in fresh dew. Showing up to the Ninilchik boat launch with numerous other Alaskan residents looking for our fill on Cook Inlet's razor clams, we didn't really know what to expect. People were loading wheelers with buckets, shovels, and refreshments for the day - but we weren't the only locals looking for food. Bald eagles walked the beaches with us, scavenging for whatever they could get their beaks on. some staring from a distance and others getting up close and personal with our clamming operation. Although our keep was small it reminded me of the importance of being self-sufficient and passing that desire and know-how down to the next generation.
