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.
