8th Moon Art
I am an artist, writer, daughter, mother, wife, and lover of life! I live on the California Coast with my husband and our son.
Why 8th Moon Art? The 8th phase of the moon is the Crescent moon. And yes, Crescent is my given name! The 8th moon is also the phase of the moon under which my son was born.
I've spent the majority of my adult life partaking in the arts. I acted on stage in college, I am a published author, I owned a hair salon, and I even tried my hand (pun intended) at playing guitar.
As busy as life gets, I always make time for art. It fulfills a basic need in me that I can't get from anything else. I create my art in my studio overlooking the Pacific Ocean which soothes my soul. Many of my themes are inspired by the water and everything it has to offer. My favorite techniques are palette knife painting and fluid art.
In addition to painting, I love writing, so while you're here, I invite you to read my blog, "A Day in the Life of an Artist," available on this site.
Thanks for visiting!
Long walks, laying out on the beach, splashing around in the ocean.
All things women and water.
My Celebrating Women series showcases women in all aspects, from the precious, to the glorious, to the mundane.
I created this series using an acrylic pour/fluid art technique that incorporates the use of oil, water, and fire!
The eyes are most prominent in these paintings, but don't overlook the rest! In this series, I try to capture the little nuances such as an uneven smile, a crooked nose, or offset eyes.
Inspired by precious moments with my son.
