Familiar Worlds Series

This whimsical series imagines aquatic creatures navigating human environments and domestic spaces. By placing these creatures out of their natural element, I created surreal, dreamlike scenarios that invite viewers to reconsider the ordinary through a lens of wonder and absurdity. The watercolor medium’s fluid, transparent qualities echo the aquatic nature of the subjects while allowing for soft, atmospheric compositions. These paintings blend my fascination with marine life, my interest in creating imaginative landscapes, and my desire to find magic in the mundane intersections between human and natural worlds.
