Artwork Description

A PIECE YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF COMING BACK TO, TIME & TIME AGAIN
The thing about the ocean is that the surface will not always tell you what is going on underneath.
I have been inspired by the sheer beauty of the oceans and waterways which I am surrounded by in my everyday life. Many different colour combinations and layering techniques have been used to capture the texture, movement, and energy of the sea in an abstract interpretation. A beautiful colour palette of dreamy blues, teal, greens, and foamy whites used, has created "Tide & Texture "
I never stop experimenting, taking risks, and pushing the boundaries into the unknown realm of fluid art and its potential, and in my mind, I see this piece not just as art but a journey of self-discovery and revelation through the freedom this art form allows.
Just as each viewer is unique, so too is the energy derived from this artwork. The images you see here on your screen do not show off this artwork to its fullest potential. The eye is in the detail.
Tide & Texture will look stunning in any interior style and will make that WOW statement especially one with a coastal breezy or Hamptons vibe. It will also make a statement in any commercial application. A truly unique piece. This artwork can never be replicated.
A large painting, Tide & Texture has been varnished with 3 layers of archival varnish to enhance the colour and protect it from UV rays. It is ready to hang in one direction although you may choose to hang/display in a different orientation as it is multidirectional. It also comes with a signed Authenticity Certificate. As the paint flows freely over the edges a frame is not necessary in my opinion, but if desired I would suggest a slim line modern white or oak timber floater frame. The option is yours..
Zoom in to gaze at the fine detail.

BRING HOME A FEELING, NOT JUST AN ARTWORK

Artist Bio

I push fluid art beyond the pour, beyond the patterns, beyond the expected!
Because fluid art isn't just about what the paint does. It's about what you make it say!

I am an award winning artist. Please see some of my achievements on my profile.
Coming from a family of artists, I have been surrounded by creativity and artistic expression throughout my life, which has significantly shaped my approach to art today.
I was born in Sydney NSW and have been living on the beautiful Gold Coast in QLD for the last 16years.
My art style is modern contemporary/abstract, sometimes leaning towards impressionism and the techniques I use in this art form have captured a new edgy perspective from the usual fluid art experience. I mainly use acrylic paints with polymer as a flow medium, although I also love to use alcohol ink as another medium.

My practice explores fluid art as a means of interpreting the essence of place beyond literal representation.
Inspired by the movement of coastal waters and the raw beauty of the Australian landscape, I work with colour, organic forms, layered compositions, textures and transparency to evoke the character and atmosphere of a place.

Balancing intuition with intension , I embrace the unpredictable nature of the medium while carefully guiding each work towards its own identity. For me, fluid art is more than the creation of patterns; it is a process of discovery, where movement, depth and unexpected details come together to express a feeling, a sense of place and a story of its own.

I want each work to offer more than an image- a feeling a connection, or a place the observer can return to in their imagination.


My artworks are held in private collections throughout Australia and abroad and have also been represented in many galleries across Queensland and NSW and internationally.

The pour is just the beginning!
