Inspiration:
This is the fifth painting I’ve made inspired by the Golden Gate Bridge, and I know it won’t be the last. There’s something about that iconic structure—the sweeping lines, the bold symmetry, and especially that color, a deep yet vibrant orange-red, officially called International Orange. It’s unforgettable, just like the view I had of the bridge from my dorm room during junior year of college.
Back then, it felt like the bridge was always watching over me, a constant presence during a transformative time in my life. I’d wake up to it cloaked in fog, glowing softly as the sun broke through, or shimmering against a cobalt-blue sky. It was a reminder of connection, strength, and possibility—qualities I’ve carried with me ever since.
This painting isn’t just about the bridge itself; it’s about what it symbolizes. It’s a love letter to the past, to those formative years, and to the color that never fails to inspire me.
