Midnight Crossing

This piece aims to capture quiet stillness out at sea, with nothing but the stars above and the water below. A lone boat drifts across deep blues, reminding us of the beauty in solitude and the vastness of the world around us. It feels both calm and ethereal. I have used soft brushwork to blend the colours in the night sky, giving it a soft and moody feel, while using palette knife for the water and rowboat to create an interesting texture.

Painted on heavy duty Eraldo Di Paolo stretched canvas.

I am a self-taught, emerging artist based in WA who uses primarily acrylic paints. I've been artistic since a young age, always carrying a sketchbook with me to school or on vacation. Although I started painting in my early 20s, since becoming a mother I have felt more compelled to take a chance on myself as an artist.
My works are often experimental, intuitively blending elements of abstract with landscape or figurative - depending on my mood or what kind or artwork I'm aiming for.
Currently, I am working through a midnight ocean series.
