Black and white is a deliberate choice for the 'Seascape' Series. Immersing himself in the depth of rich blacks, calming grays, and sharp whites, Peebles captures the sea’s essence, embracing abstraction and moving beyond the constraints of color. This approach evokes emotions that resonate with the heart rather than just the eyes. The sea, with its elemental mystery of water and air, inspired the series on Western Australia’s rugged coast and led to journeys across Australia, the North Sea, the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. Each time Peebles gazes upon the ocean, he feels a deep sense of calm and connection, as though returning to an ancestral home, marking the beginning of a new voyage of discovery.
