Breath of the Ocean

This artwork unfolds in a powerful spectrum of deep blues and greens, evoking the shifting intensity of the ocean’s surface. Layers of acrylic and slaked lime create a richly textured foundation, while the presence of rust introduces warm, earthy undertones that contrast beautifully with the cool marine palette. The crackled patterns at the centre resemble fractured seabed structures or weathered rock formations shaped by tides and time.

Subtle transitions between smooth washes and rough, tactile areas give the piece a sense of movement, as if currents were flowing across the canvas. The interplay of colour, texture, and organic forms creates a dynamic composition that feels both elemental and contemplative. Each detail appears shaped by natural forces, making the painting an arresting focal point in any modern space.
