A generally dark image of dark green foliage and shadows, with yellow and rouge highlights. A log stands on its end underneath a camellia tree. A vintage yellow ceramic jug is on top of the log. Bright rouge camellias are bursting out of the jug, but it's impossible to know if they form part of the tree or have been cut and placed in the jug. One other camellia is at the left of frame, clearly part of the tree. Other buds can be spotted as small amounts of colour popping through the dark green foliage.

The vintage yellow jug sits to the left of frame on a 45º angle, It takes up almost the entire frame from top to bottom. The right side is in light, the other in shade. The jug sits on a table top surface with distressed paint in green and white as well as plenty of raw wood. Spilling out of the right side of the jug down toward the bottom of frame are ammobium, small white paper daisies. They are past their prime. Some of the stems have turned black and the petals have mostly turned backwards, revealing the round yellow stamen. The sun, coming from the right of frame is casting shadows of the flowers onto the jug. In the silhouette, they become more full than in reality. On the left side of the jug, within the shadow, are reflections of three of the white flowers, which otherwise are not visible in the photograph.

A vintage yellow ceramic jug is mostly in the right-hand half of the frame. It is side on with the lip facing inwards. It is outside but on a floor of old broken bathroom tiles. The background is out of focus but indicates a body of water and bush beyond. The jug is overflowing with jasmine. It spills out and falls all around. There is a lot of jasmine foliage with new bright buds in the middle and foreground of the left side of frame. The colours of the image are desaturated, except for the pinks of the jasmine stamen and the yellow jug.

A vintage yellow ceramic jug sits to the right of frame on an antique wooden surface which stretches across the lower third of the image from left to right. The only light source is through an unseen window, to the right of the jug. The window is partly out of frame and partly obscured by a white thick cotton curtain. A shadow runs diagonally through the frame from upper right hand side to lower left, throwing most of the upper left corner of the image into darkness. There are no flowers in the jug, however, long, thin, complex strands of zigzag wattle with small yellow balls of flower are loosely wrapped around the jug, both embracing it and forming an impenetrable barrier around the jug. The strands disappear into the shadow, and small balls of dropped wattle flowers are scattered around the jug.

The composition is divided into three distinct sections. The first, located in the top right, depicts the conscious individual against a striped background, symbolizing the environment with its daily distractions. Here, the senses, smell, sight, and hearing, are engaged.
The second section, set against an all-white background, represents the creative process at a subconscious level. In this space, we begin to explore our inner world. The senses are no longer needed; the eyes are covered, the mouth is silent, and thoughts start to flow freely.
The third section spans the entire left and lower parts of the composition, symbolizing the platonic world of ideas. In this realm, disordered thoughts flow without restriction, and only through the act of drawing, guided by our hands, can these ideas be shaped and brought into the conscious realm.

We could say that an aerial is when a surfer rises above the waves, taking advantage of inertia, and for a few moments 'flies' over the sea, glued to his board. For me, this moment is truly extraordinary and I wanted to capture it in this evocative image, where different geometric planes form a physical frame of triangular shapes representing different states of the sky. Two curved lines converge to create the shape of the table, and in particular the coral line, which has more weight, represents the upward direction of movement. The central element, a deconstruction of pieces that refer to the body, and in the upper part of it 3 faces, 3 expressions that want to represent the different emotions that the protagonist feels at this moment.
In the lower right-hand corner of the canvas, some folded planes evoke the sea, which places the main subject of the composition, flying over it, at the same height as the birds on either side.

The composition reflects the location faithfully, incorporating numerous elements. It offers a view from the sea to the beach, as seen from the perspective of a swimmer or surfer.
The left side of the canvas depicts the southern part of the beach, featuring the renowned icebergs that define the landscape. On the right, we observe the rock formations that resemble stacked books, representing the northern limit of the area. Each morning, tourists and locals gather at this vantage point to witness the breathtaking sunrises.
The upper part of the canvas represents the horizon, the sky, and the urban landscape beyond.
The composition is centred on an amalgam of turquoise planes, moving from bottom to top, which represent the constant movement of the waves and tides. Different shapes and curves appear here, evoking human silhouettes, representing bodies in the sun. Bodies that, being partially or totally submerged by the plane of the water, are only glimpsed as loose limbs.
My objective was to capture the connection between flora, fauna and humanity, as well as the vividness of the water.

The background is a wave breaking from the left to the right side of the canvas, known as the 'left' wave, which gives the work its title. In this piece I wanted to give a little wink to the childish part of all of us, using the medium of the sea and surfing as a discourse where 'Goofy' has its own meaning.
