Sweet Savannah: A Candy Colored Love Letter, original painting
Sweet Savannah is an original abstract cartography painting celebrating Savannah through color, geography, and memory.
Inspired by the vibrant colors and Southern confections of Savannah’s historic River Street, the painting transforms the city into a candy-colored map of experience. Turquoise waterways move around lavender neighborhoods, bright greens trace the familiar street grid, and warm creams and golden yellows recall pralines fresh from the kettle.
The painting grew from one of my earliest memories of Savannah: visiting River Street Sweets at sixteen and tasting my first warm praline. Years later, the scent of butter, toasted pecans, vanilla, and caramelized sugar still carries me back to that afternoon along the Savannah River.
Within Sweet Savannah, geography becomes a place for memory to settle. The Historic District, waterways, marshes, islands, and coastal landscape remain visible beneath layers of playful color and pattern. Each detail holds something of the city as I have experienced it, shaped by its streets, its water, its traditions, and its sweetness.
This is the original 9 × 12-inch painting, created by hand in acrylic on board in 2026. As a one-of-a-kind work, there is only one original Sweet Savannah available.
