Bioluminous Rockpool Drift - Original Abstract Sealife Painting

This is a larger original abstract painting on canvas that is ready to hang on your beautiful wall.

Medium: Acrylic Polymer Paint on Traditional Gallery Wrapped Canvas

Dimensions: H102cm x W102cm (40” x 40”)

This large painting allows you to come in close and experience the joy of colours inspired by aquatic, molecular and microscopic life. The shapes and their arrangement are intended to form colour vibrations to create enjoyment and delight in the viewer. 

There is a subtle texture and layered depth to the surface of this piece and a beautiful colour palette. The jewel like aqua, ultra-marine and turquoise connect me so much with my life and love of the ocean. Splashes of iridescent pinks and subtle yellows remind me of finding bright corals and seaweeds on rock pool adventures. All these things and the sharp contrast of the fluffy whites and deep dark blue-blacks work together to create the wonderful otherworldliness of the waters of life.

The big. The tiny. The sea. The molecules. The microscopic. These things I think about and look at when I create these paintings. They can be viewed as miniscule cell life just as easily as floating jelly-fish swarms or an underwater garden with bioluminescent organisms and sea anemones blooms.

Diving deep into the big blue. This painting belongs to my 'Aquatic' Series. It is representative of my exploration into the microscopic minutiae of life with all its order & chaos. I delve into the beautiful parallels of art with science that I have bound with my love of floaty effervescent underwater life. All the stuff that is so very real but cannot be seen with our normal everyday eyesight.

The circular organic motifs allude to cellular life forms, dainty aquatic-life and in the arrangement, the pulsating rhythmic patterns of universal forms that so often stop us in our tracks in awe of their magnificence. I wanted the painting to be sublime and beautiful yet also have feelings of fragility.

”I feel like I am gently floating like jelly-fish” is a lovely comment I so often receive from this series.

What I enjoy most about my paintings is they make people smile with a sense of wonderment and feelings of happiness as well as making their walls bright and beautiful for years to come.
