Acrylic Mixed Media on canvas 48x40

"This piece hums with the spirit of Joni Mitchell’s "Big Yellow Taxi", a song that instantly transports me back to childhood. Layers of vibrant yellows, pinks, and glowing oranges rest over deep, grounding blues. As with much of my work, pieces of my life are tucked into the layers, fragments of marks, lines, and patterns that feel like threads weaving moments together. It’s about connection: to place, to music, to memory, and to the people who shaped the rhythm of my days. Big Yellow Taxi is both a joyful burst of color and a gentle reminder to hold on to the things that matter before they quietly slip away."
