Algue De Mer ripples with metallic gold. Several variants of seaweed and coral layered in soft opaque washes of paint to create a striking statement piece. There are highlights of metallic gold as detailed in the numerous closeups. The metallic gold is in 2 different shades and will change depending on the light source and angle of the viewer. and layers of colours that have been built up in layer upon layer to give a translucence and to create the depth of looking through water into a rockpool with seaweed and rocks. There are areas of raised texture. There is a companion artwork Algue De Mer 2 - with a terracotta ochre colour palette - it is a smaller artwork at 100cm wide.

This artwork is painting on a high quality cotton canvas.
