Exhale II

This original artwork was inspired by the calming colours of the Australian coastline—deep ocean blues, turquoise water and soft sandy shores. Designed to bring a sense of peace and relaxation into your home, it's the kind of artwork you'll enjoy every time you walk past.
Whether it's styled above a console, dressing table, desk or shelf, this one-of-a-kind painting adds warmth, colour and a beautiful coastal feel without overwhelming the room.

Part of the Exhale Collection
Exhale II is part of my new Exhale collection. Each painting in the series is an original, one-of-a-kind artwork inspired by the calming rhythm of the ocean. While every piece is designed to stand beautifully on its own, together they tell a peaceful coastal story.

Hello, I’m Sam. I’m an Adelaide based Artist working with Fluid acrylic paints. Much of my art is inspired by what I see through my camera lens.

Coastal Inspiration
My work is a tribute to the rhythm of the ocean. Living by the coast, I am a daily witness to the shifting tides and the transformative power of light. My creative practice is a dialogue between two worlds: the literal moment captured in my landscape photography and the rhythmic energy of abstract fluid acrylics.
Light & Texture
I am influenced by the intricate textures found in nature—the foam of a breaking wave, the grit of shoreline rocks, and the way light scatters across the land at dusk. My photography serves as an inspiration for these details.
The Process
Using fluid acrylics, I mimic the organic movement of the sea. By layering paint and manipulating surface tension with air and heat, I create "cells" and lacing that echo the natural patterns of the coast. Each piece is a balance of control and spontaneity, designed to capture the atmospheric feeling of days at the beach.

This collection is an invitation to pause and bring a piece of the ocean’s restorative calm into your day.
