Below are reflections from my writing and art.

People enjoying a beach scene in the rain with umbrellas, a lifeguard stand, and a boat in the water.

One early summer morning, I took pics of lifeguards preparing for the day. I imagine Abel, from What Stirs Beneath, doing this as a teen. These scenes inspired some of my artwork.

A rocky jetty extends into the ocean with waves crashing against it during a stormy day under a cloudy sky.
