Ocean Blues

2024

Acrylic on canvas, 24x24 inches

This artwork is part of a series titled swimming towards the light. Swimming towards the light is a representation of being too deep underwater. It’s dark, it’s cold, it’s quiet. Your logic brain knows that it is ok, you will swim up and everything is fine. However, your survival brain panics a little about making it to the surface.

Ocean blues reflects that feeling in an ocean where the dark of the ocean is very dark and the surface is a rippling reflection of light above you.
