Introducing The Atmospheric Collection: A Tribute to the Pacific Northwest’s Glow

I’m thrilled to introduce The Atmospheric Collection, a new series of landscape paintings that captures the misty, light-filled essence of the Pacific Northwest. In this collection, I’ve explored how light filters through mist and clouds, transforming the region’s iconic trees, mountains, and coastlines into scenes of quiet drama and glow.

Each piece in The Atmospheric Collection reflects my fascination with light—how it softens some details while intensifying others, and how it creates an almost ethereal ambiance in landscapes that are naturally rich in mystery and mood. From mist-cloaked pines to glowing mountain silhouettes, I’ve worked to convey a sense of both peace and awe, an experience I hope resonates deeply with fellow nature lovers.

Techniques That Illuminate: Fluid Acrylics, Ink Markers, and New Layers of Depth

Creating this collection allowed me to experiment with new materials and methods. While heavy body acrylics are still part of my process, The Atmospheric Collection features fluid acrylic and ink markers, which add a different kind of depth and softness. Using these new mediums, I found a balance between clean simplicity and detailed realism.

With ink markers, I used my experience in realism to capture finer details without distracting from the overall composition. The fluid acrylics, on the other hand, allowed me to create thin, watery washes that serve as a glowing ground. These initial layers radiate through thicker, more textured layers of heavy body paint, giving each painting a subtle, luminescent quality. This layering technique results in an atmospheric effect that draws you into each landscape, making you feel as if you’re part of it.

Art for the Refined Nature Lover

The Atmospheric Collection is designed for art lovers who are not only drawn to nature but also have an appreciation for elevated, minimalist elegance. I wanted to create work that speaks to a refined sense of style, to those who appreciate the power of nature but also the calm, understated luxury that art can bring to a space.

If you’re seeking art that combines the serenity of the Pacific Northwest with a dramatic sense of light and atmosphere, I hope you’ll find that connection here in The Atmospheric Collection. It’s art for those who find beauty in both the subtle and the grand, and who appreciate the way a single piece can transform a room.
