Beach Dreams

Beach Dreams is a very light, but bright, inviting painting of the aqua ocean and its waves crashing to the shoreline. My inspirations comes from my love of the South West of Australia. Those summer days when its hot and windy and the waves keep crashing into shore, one after the other.
The ocean was created using acrylic inks and acrylic paints. Building medium was used to create the textured waves. These textured waves create shadows as they would in real life.
My technique of flowing inks can cause swirls, drips and water marks, this is all apart of the abstract beach painting and helps create depth in the deep ocean blue.
The camera doesn't capture the beautiful aqua blue of this painting, light but vibrant.

Colours may vary from screen to screen.

I am a mum of 2 busy boys and a loving husband who love to get out and about in our beautiful colourful Western Australia.
Being a self taught artist who loves colour, I love exploring new art techniques. I have a love of abstract art. There is beautiful real life scenery, flowers or sunsets that are ready to be painted, but cameras can capture those in great detail. No one can photograph or paint your imagination. I love that the pictures in my head spill onto the canvas in colour and detail. I love playing around with Ink and seeing where it runs and what it forms. All forms of abstract catch my eye and love a bit of collage. But beaches are my main love and I grew up living my youth at the beach. Even now my family love to spend the summer days by the beachside. My art is most recently inspired by the country we live in. The bush, beach, flowers and animals. So much colour and diversity. Australia love 😍
