Dazzle Island

A dark island and reef are swept by wind and wave. I’m fascinated by the rugged, glistening beauty of the violent ocean, and the fractal charm of the abstract shapes and forms that nature delivers. Do water demons ride these waves for sheer joy? The human brain can make a face out of any two dots it sees!

• Oodles of detail and an ultramarine dazzle you won’t tire of.

• Artist quality watercolour with unconventional techniques on gessoed 300gsm Fabriano watercolour paper. Watercolour fixative is applied. 

• Provided unframed so you can have it framed to your taste. The frame shown in the illustrations is a simple mock-up, but a white matt board as shown will accentuate the colour. Frame under glass like any watercolour. 

• Paper dimensions are 37.4Wx47.1H. Image dimensions are 35.0Wx44.8H

• Our world’s shapes, colours and textures have a deep personal resonance and I aim to share that sense of wonder. I’ll always keep experimenting, learning, and making sense of the world through my personal art, and I’m excited to showcase and offer some of the pieces here in the hope you’ll enjoy them too.

• I work predominantly in acrylic and sympathetic water media. My acrylic works on watercolour paper mounted to my own handcrafted braced panels do not need to be mounted under glass, and can be cared for like any other varnished acrylic painting. All my works are completed with artist quality archival materials and media, and crafted with care and attention to longevity.
