Out of the blue
Having visited the Dalmatian coast for the first time I was transfixed by the beautiful waters. I am making a body of work based on my visit and will be adding more. I shall be printing and doing more mixed drawing and paintings to provide a sense of place. The creation of surface pattern together with colours and movement is a wonderful challenge. I shall be adding some visual “props” for this body of work. Jetty, boat and moorings etc and these may sit well with the project overall.
Appearing unpredictably fluid yet meticulously composed, this creation delves into the paradox of movement within a seemingly static medium. Layers of cerulean blue, teal, and indigo coalesce, reflecting the depth and fluidity of water. Textured brushstrokes and layered techniques mimic the undulating motion of waves, resulting in an engaging shift of light and shadow. Variations in hue and the intricate patterns formed by the brushwork impart both energy and tranquility. The visual experience allows viewers to immerse themselves in the forms and rich shades, suggesting the soothing ebb and flow of the ocean.
