About our artist:
To quote Pensacola-native Doug about what the natural beauty of the Florida Gulf Coast means to him: “I have been a devotee of unspoiled coastal scenery my entire life. During the lockdowns of the COVID 19 pandemic, I really took refuge in exploring water and waves in my painting and deepened my love for all things beach-related. One of the few places I could still go was the beach, so I began taking my easel out to the Johnson’s Beach National Seashore on Perdido Key and began posting my photos of my paintings as “Today’s Wave” on my Facebook page. It helped heal my soul and retain my sanity and I am glad to help further the cause of conserving the Florida seascape I grew up in.”
An Army veteran, Doug has taught in the public schools for over 30 years, with 27 years as the Band Director at Escambia High School. He is now at Pensacola State College, where he directs the Wind Ensemble, Jazz Band and the Pensacola Civic Band. He has painted as a hobby his entire adult life and done design work for the band programs in the area; including most of the band uniforms currently use in the Escambia County School District as well as props, color guard uniforms and flags. After taking classes at Painting With a Twist, Doug realized he could combine his love of painting and teaching into a single activity, and joined the Pensacola studio in May of 2021. He works in oil at home, and the subject matter has varied widely over the decades, but for the last few years he has focused on the beautiful beaches of his hometown here on the Emerald Coast. His personal style tends toward photorealism, rendering the movement of water and waves with depth and vibrancy.To quote Doug about what the natural beauty of the Florida Gulf Coast means to him: “I have been a devotee of unspoiled coastal scenery my entire life.

EPA's VOICES OF THE VILLAGE "Left Turn, No Signal"
2026-04-16 16:45 - 19:30 | Private: Gateway Church of Christ, 445 Creighton Road, Pensacola, FL, 32504, United States
Join EPA’s Voices of the Village for powerful stories about life’s unexpected turns.

Left Turn, No Signal
That “left turn, no signal” feeling is so real. One minute you’re cruising along, music on, windows down, singing loudly – and the next, you’re slamming on the brakes wondering what just happened. Life is that way – we are going along and everything seems okay when a left turn happens! In the moment, the feeling is jarring and might seem unfair. Sometimes the feeling is deeply painful. Things just seem to happen that cause us to feel loss and unsure.
Truth is, we want to have “the signal” so we can prepare for the next turn. We don’t like to have things occur for which we are totally unprepared.
We’ve all had those “no signal” moments when plans have unraveled and doors are shut unexpectedly.
We would love to hear your story. What was your “left turn, no signal” moment – and what did it teach you? If you would like to share, just complete the attached application.
