In July 2020 since the pandemic was still raging in NYC and it was summer, my family and I relocated temporarily again to live in south coast Massachusetts where my family has a beach home. I have gone there every summer since I was born, as have generations of my family before me. It was beautiful being there and living and painting in that environment for many months as summer turned to fall. I took over a portion of an attached outdoor shed/workspace as my studio which I shared with my father and his woodworking tools and projects. I had easy outdoor access and it was great to paint flat on the ground and have huge sliding doors to easily move my paintings outside. There was lots of humid ocean air (which made the paint take forever to dry but allowed me to easily use spray paint again!) and a view of the constantly changing ocean and big sky which influenced my work.
