Minimalist, bold and elegant. Mediums and materials, such as sand, are manipulated to achieve exciting effects when combined with translucent pigments. The painting attempts to mimic the intricate geology of the ocean floor. The “Pacific” piece includes hits of five small atols in the upper portion of the painting with a single, stretched atol across the canvas top. A trench with deeper ocean water is seen through the middle while the textures mimic volcanic formations.
Suitable for a bright location with natural daylight. Artwork changes in appearance depending on ambient light (location, time of day, weather). The blue and turquoise glazes appear particularly vibrant as light bounces off the textured surface. Painting becomes opaque in dim light. Photos taken in different lighting conditions.
Note: computer screens often struggle to portray the true colour palette of physical artwork - particularly blues and greens. Hues can vary substantially between different monitors, smartphones and even between applications (e.g. instagram v webpage). Please check the photos on multiple platforms for an “average” view.
