This is an original one off, abstract painting on a circular Canvas that is framed and ready to hang on your beautiful wall.
In this smaller painting the colours and action subtly reflect nature and is inspired by mini-worlds discovered in rock pools, shorelines and a touch of geology in the formations and varied colours seen in cliff faces and stones. The shapes I have used and their arrangement are intended to form visual intrigue and create delight in the viewer. The roundness of the painting asks you to come in close as if looking through the circular lens of a microscope.
‘Bio-Sphere Rock Pool I’ belongs to my ‘Aqua Vitae’ Series, inspired by microscopic other worlds and aquatic wonderlands. Particle physics, pulsating atoms, cell growth, minuscule amoebas and of course I can never escape the otherworldliness of underwater sea life. I grew up in and by the sea. Ultimately the paintings are about our sense of awe and wonder at nature and the miraculous building blocks 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 an underwater view or a rock pool garden with floating coral blooms.
Ultimately the paintings are about our sense of awe at nature and the miraculous miniscule building blocks of all life.
What I enjoy most about my paintings is they make people smile with a sense of wonder and feelings of happiness as well as giving their walls finesse and intrigue for years to come.

I have reduced the price of this painting due to the effect of Corona Virus on the world economy and my income. I am hoping it helps some buyers to beautify their homes in this current situation and be able to support a sole trader - artist (that's me), at the same time.
Prices will return to normal when the world does.
