Thresholds Comes Home: The Collection Is Now Available
A month ago, these ten paintings were living on the walls of Center for the Arts Kayenta, lit low, holding space for whoever walked through the door. Now the show has come down, and I've spent the last few days doing something strange… carrying each piece back into my home/studio, one at a time, and looking at them the way you look at someone after they've been somewhere without you.
Thresholds: The Liminal Sky was never meant to end when the exhibition did. It was built around the idea of the in-between, that suspended, glowing moment between what was and what's next. And that's exactly where this collection is now: between the gallery and its next home. Which might be yours.
Starting today, all remaining original paintings from the Thresholds collection are available for purchase directly through Kanoelani Art, whether you're down the street here in St. George, Utah, or across the country.
The Collection
Each piece is one-of-a-kind, hand-built with fiber optic lighting, resin, crystals, mica, and botanicals I grow and preserve myself — hibiscus, orchids, and other living things from my own garden, suspended permanently inside the work. No two pieces glow quite the same way twice.
The ten paintings in this collection:
Body of Starlight
The Descent
Saltwater Constellations
Celestial Vigils
Waiting Light
The Turning
The Meeting Place
Messenger
Hōkūleʻa
Last Light
Each one carries its own individual story from the exhibition, themes of transformation, grief, ancestry, and the architecture of becoming. If you'd like the full story behind a specific piece before deciding, just reach out. I'm happy to walk you through it.
In bringing these home and having them on my own walls, I am having moments in my own daily life where I feel like the messaging of each painting will hit me at a certain time of the day. I’ll be having a conversation about something when suddenly my brain goes, “wait, that’s exactly what (this painting) has been telling me.” And maybe one of these paintings can speak to you too.
Built for Spaces That Mean Something
I make luxury abstract art for people who think about their walls the way they think about everything else in a considered life: intentionally. These pieces were designed for exactly the kind of spaces I keep hearing from Southern Utah's builders, designers, and collectors: primary suites with a view of the Red Cliffs, formal living rooms that need one anchor piece instead of ten small ones, custom builds where the lighting plan already includes a moment for fiber optics to do their quiet work after dark.
If you're an interior designer or builder working on a project in St. George, Ivins, Washington, or greater Southern Utah — new construction, a remodel, or a model home for Parade of Homes — these pieces were made with exactly that caliber of space in mind. I'm always open to trade partnerships and custom commissions for builds in progress.
If you're a collector in Las Vegas, Southern California, or Hawaii, this collection was built with your homes and your light in mind too. The fiber optics inside each piece are designed to hold their own at dusk, in a way that photographs never fully capture, something to see in person if you're local, or something I can walk you through over video if you're not.

Local to St. George? Let's Do This in Person
If you're in the St. George area, I'd genuinely love for you to see these in the studio before they go anywhere. Photographs do their best, but fiber optics have a presence that a screen just can't hold. Local delivery and studio visits are always the ideal way to experience a piece before it becomes part of your home.
Not Local? These Ship.
You don't have to be in Utah to bring one of these home. Every piece in the Thresholds collection ships fully insured, professionally crated, and ready to hang, anywhere in the continental U.S. I handle packaging personally, the same way I handle everything else in this process: carefully, and with the piece's integrity in mind from studio to your wall. And then delivered to you, some via a private art courrier.
Ready to Bring One Home?
Pieces from Thresholds: The Liminal Sky are priced between $1,000-$5,000 and are available now, first come, first held. If one of these has been sitting with you since the show — or if you're seeing them for the first time here — reach out and let's talk about which piece belongs in your space.
