This mixed media acrylic painting explores the ocean through shifting angles and layered perspectives, capturing the rhythmic repetition of ripples and rolling swells. Vivid blues and luminous turquoise tones contrast against crisp white wash, evoking both movement and depth within the water. The base of textured medium sets the scene with its raw finish, then with subtle semi-gloss highlights flow throughout the surface, enhancing the play of light and elevating the essence of the sea, giving the painting a sense of fluidity and quiet, hypnotic motion.

Inspiration for this piece was pulled from my sons who have been watching surf videos on repeat. They love the various angles of the camera its filmed in, giving the viewer the surfers, videographers, birds eye and from on shore perspectives.
