I recently received a comment from a friend after redesigning this site, asking where my paintings were. In addition to other web-related and creative endeavors, I actually do paint and exhibit a few times a year.
Approach to Perspective
Wanderlust is a huge part of my life. Sharing different perspectives of places we’ve all been is also a passion and style of mine. Looking up at a lamp on Quay St in Auckland or looking down at Marienplatz from St. Peters in Muenchen are a few angles I look for when painting.
Approach to Color
Exuberant colors demand your attention. They scream because they want to be seen. They want to be noticed. I am drawn to oils and oil pastels because they provide that opaque, rich, and layered depth that allow me to communicate my personality on canvas.
Existing paintings are for sale, and I’ve also been commissioned to create some custom pieces in the past.
Where you can find them
1) Right hand navigation link under “Projects – Paintings + Comic Strip”
2) Their online home – www.blue-socks.com
3) You can always use the contact form
Be sure to check out some paintings online. I’m currently planning on updating the gallery with newer works.

Vibrant and wonderful! I LOVE color so much though ironically, I don’t wear it much. Ah, human paradox.
Beautiful. If I wasn’t traveling so much, I would love to acquire one. I am always drawn to paintings with vivid colors, and I know from my own limited painting experience how difficult it is to pull off. Oh Lola, where do you find the time…
Thanks guys. I wish I had more time to paint!!
wonderful paintings. If i ever settle down, I’ll be sure to commission some of your work. I’m a big fan of bright pastels.
Matt – Thanks. Anytime!
