Gold Coast Reverie is a meditation on memory, light, and the intangible essence of place. Rooted in the luminous coastlines of Queensland, this work distills the shimmering intersection between sky and sea into something dreamlike—half real, half remembered.

The painting leans into the quiet poetry of reflection, where waves blur like fleeting thoughts and the horizon feels less like a destination and more like a threshold. This reverie is not about geography, but emotion—about how the warmth of sunlight on skin, the salt in the air, and the lull of distant tides can etch themselves into the soul.

Working in layered glazes and softened tones, I sought to evoke the sensation of looking back—not with longing, but with gentle wonder. Gold Coast Reverie invites the viewer into a shared stillness, a coastal breath held between then and now.
