Summer Time Memories: Seaside Nostalgia Collage | Beach Photography & Text Fragments | 24x30"

An Exploration of Summer's Gentle Rhythms and Lasting Impressions

"Summer Time Memories" is a layered exploration of the season's essence, blending soft gradients of purple and gold to evoke the tranquil light of a late seaside afternoon. Central to the piece are repeating photographic strips of a woman in motion along the beach, suggesting both the joyful immersion in the moment and the gentle passage of time.

Butterflies, seashells, starfish, and a sunlit sandcastle are woven throughout, adding tactile and symbolic depth to the personal experience. Text fragments like "Memories," "every summer has a story," and "THERE IS NO COLOR QUITE LIKE THE OCEAN" anchor the work in reflection, inviting you to consider your own associations with the sea and the season.

This collage balances spontaneity with thoughtful composition, capturing the essence of summer not just as a time of year, but as a cherished feeling held in memory.
