16th Birthday

Waking up early to watch the sunrise on my birthday had always been on my bucket list. In 2022,

I finally made it happen by capturing a quiet, breathtaking moment on the beach in Navarre, Florida, on the morning of my 16th birthday.

​

That image sat in my camera roll for years, waiting for the right time to be transformed into a painting. In February of 2025, I finally brought it to life on canvas.
