Artwork Description
Oil Paint on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.
Signed on the front.
I have lived along the coast all my life, and my love of the ocean, it's creatures and the peace are all factors that inspire me to paint these underwater pieces. My love of colour is always evident and reflected in the vibrancy and boldness of my pieces. My works are very impressionistic and start with an often busy background of colour and texture in acrylics, which I then paint over the top of in oils. I want these backgrounds to add their own interest to a painting in their mark making, but not take away from the main painting on top, and I invite the viewer to get up close and personal and look at what's going on in the many layers. Once completed, I like my underwater scenes to be finished with a satin varnish spray, which adds a vibrancy and lusciousness to the colours and protects the work for years to come.
Medium
Swirls of texture paste, covered by Acrylic paints for background with final layers and detail done in oil paints, finished with a satin spray varnish for protection.
