Days like these are picture perfect: warm golden sunrises filling the earth with fresh hope and new possibilities; scenic road trips through lush green hills and valleys with scattered waterways and pretty dappled trees. I love days like these!
Even more so, the destination ahead when I take these picturesque roads in summer. As we journey closer - over mountain ranges to the coastline that lies just beyond - I can't help but exhale in anticipation of the carefree, light filled, happy, relaxed, picture perfect days just ahead.

A place imagined from the longing for rest and quiet, peace and hope. Soft pinks and soothing greens reveal a coastal sanctuary in which to pause, reflect, breathe and heal. A place where the landscape itself offers stillness and shelter, protection and comfort.
I want to escape to here; to hear nothing but the gentle rustle of trees, and the rhythmic ripple and lull of enduring waves. To feel the dusk breeze awaken my senses, and the warmth of the sinking sun wrap me in an embrace. To see dappled soft light fall on a beautiful coastal landscape that has stood the test of time. Here it is quiet, calm, and my hope is restored, in a hidden sanctuary of solitude and reflection.

There's a quiet that settles over the landscape as the sun says goodbye to the day. Time slows and moods shift as you feel the embrace of silence wrap around you. As the tender warm blush of the sky softens and last light hesitantly lingers, you can't help but exhale.
This sweet little coastal landscape with horses peacefully grazing under a dusk sky evokes all this for me, and I hope for its new owner too. It's a gentle reminder daily to pause, find calm, look for peace, and find contentment in the quiet moments.

We all need a little fresh air at times. For me there's nowhere better to get fresh air than the coast. Salty fresh breezes that awaken senses - especially in summer when they're a welcome reprieve from the harsh Aussie sun. Fresh air here means I can breathe a little easier, reflect a little longer, be still awhile more.

A Little Exhale, because that's what all we need right? Life can be crazy, fast paced, challenging, and it's often difficult to find time to ourselves, but at the coast it's easy to catch my breath and exhale. This pretty mini coastscape is inspired by that exhale. Small, it still makes an impact on my senses, just like the fresh cool sea water and salty breezes meeting rocky shoreline does for me in reality. Especially at sunset under a pink warm sky. I hope it evokes that for you too as it does me.

When life is all too hard and overwhelming, this is what's needed. Time here, at the coast at sunset, looking out at deep blue-green water, listening to crashing waves against shorelines, and exploring rugged rocky coastlines.
The sound of the waves soothing, the warmth of the sinking sun embracing, the salty breezes awakening, combined they give me time to reflect, unwind, shift mindset and find hope. When I can't be at the coast painting, it becomes what's needed instead. It brings purpose, encouragement, contentment, and the hope and strength needed to keep going.

The beach at sunset is a gorgeous place to be. Last rays of a balmy summer's day refract through waters and across the sandy coastline, bathing everything in a warm golden light. It's a beautiful time to pause a while, ponder the day that's been, and find renewed hope for the next day to come.
This sweet little artwork - perfect to sit as a shelfie or be hung - seeks to capture the few moments of sunset when all is drenched in beautiful light.

This road through picturesque countryside at sunset could be leading anywhere. Whether it's the coast or mountains, small country town or a big city, to home or holidays, the scenery to get there can be "...oh, so beautiful".
It's often the journey that builds the anticipation for me, so when I get to witness spectacular sunsets like this while driving through rolling hills and velvet like valleys, it's something so beautiful indeed. It's a few beautiful moments to ponder all things life; to reflect, to be grateful, to find contentment, these moments fuel hope, encourage us, and inspire us as we journey forward.

Skies like these over the landscape below urge a gentle pace. To slow down, breathe, absorb the beauty and wonder of our beautiful countryside. Wrapped in a warmth, feeling small against a vast backdrop, but content and encouraged by the last golden rays sweeping across the sky as the sun says goodbye for another day. Time to reflect, ponder, be kind to one self, and go gently into the next season.

Evoking warm heartfelt moments that seek to capture a place both real and envisioned, these places and memories often become more amplified in our hearts and minds, more vivid and saturated than the original experience.
Why so? I believe it’s the connection and resonance felt at the time: the emotions we were feeling; the challenges perhaps faced; the people we were with; or the moments that transpired to bring us to that particular place in time.
So to, this coastline, with its spectacular sunset, rugged shoreline, and tempest teal green ocean that is all at once a hint at reality, but intensified more so in the heartfelt moments that linger within.

Awash with light, shifting hues and layered textures, this pretty coastal landscape reflects the quiet hush of open space and the embrace of warm light. Evoked by those fleeting golden moments of sunrise or sunset that seemingly soften the boundary between land, sea and sky - grounded yet ethereal in nature. As tides rise in coastal inlets and the sun starts its ascent or descent over ranges, I can't help but pause in the stillness, listening to the silence...hush.
