Oil on linen, ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

Turtle Time is a fresh new original oil painting rendered with traditional mineral and earth pigments and linseed oil. In other words Natural pigment paint which I make myself, just like the masters of ancient times. I no longer purchase the mass produced artist paints which consumers can buy literally anywhere today.
Inspired by the mysteries of turtles this painting depicts a green turtle re-entering the sea, after maybe having set a clutch of eggs in the sand above the high tide levels, at dawn. At the same time another nest has burst wide with eager baby turtles dashing into the water to begin their hazardous life for survival.
Painting measures 50cm x 40cm and is on a sturdy stretched Belgian Linen ground.
Being turtle season and all this is a very fitting artwork to grace your walls.
