Stinson to Muir — A New Collection Coming SOON
September 22, 2025
This summer was a blur of family time, teaching, traveling, and finding moments to paint between summer days and adventures with my son. Even with a busy schedule, I found inspiration in one of my favorite places — the stretch of California coastline between Muir Beach and Stinson Beach — and slowly began shaping a new body of work.
I’m thrilled to announce my next original oil painting collection, “Stinson to Muir.”
This upcoming release features 14 oil on canvas paintings inspired by the breathtaking views, winding roads, and peaceful hillsides that define Marin County’s coastal landscape.
About the Collection
“Stinson to Muir” captures the quiet magic of Northern California’s coast, just north of San Francisco. The drive between Stinson Beach and Muir Beach curves along the backside of Mount Tamalpais, offering some of the most romantic and painterly views imaginable — from misty ridgelines and sunlit hills to the glimmer of the Pacific Ocean below.
Not every painting in this series depicts the ocean directly. Some focus on the rolling hills, winding roads, and tree-lined cliffs that give this region its timeless charm. Each piece was created to reflect that unmistakable coastal California light and atmosphere.

Inspired by Marin’s Natural Beauty; Many of these paintings began plein air, painted directly on location while my son was at summer camp — moments of quiet creativity surrounded by the scent of eucalyptus, salt air, and the rhythm of the waves. This collection celebrates the essence of Marin County’s coastline, from Stinson Beach to Muir Beach, and the connection between family, place, and creative process.
