Mixed-Media Memorial Wall Art

Night Tide
2022
Resin, pigment, glass

This piece captures the quiet beauty of the moon glistening over water at night, created with resin, frosted glass, and deep personal meaning. The moon is formed from resin infused with the ashes of Andy’s parents — a way of holding their presence within a celestial form that feels both grounding and expansive. Its textured surface glows softly against the dark background, echoing the way moonlight settles into the night sky.

To the right, hand‑placed pieces of frosted white glass — saved from his mother — create the impression of water catching light. The resin amplifies their translucency, allowing the surface to shift between softness and depth as the viewer moves. Vertical elements add structure, suggesting reflections, movement, or the quiet pull of tide and time.

This artwork was created for his sister, Amy — a way of offering her a piece of their parents that feels luminous rather than heavy. It’s a moment suspended in material: the moon above water, light meeting reflection, memory meeting presence. A quiet tribute to the people who shaped them, and to the way love continues to move across the surface of our lives.
