These colours make me so happy. So full of life and joy. Vibrant citrus yellows, greens and spritzy blues with touches of warm earthy burnt orange, pinks and terracotta's.

'Bioluminescent Tideline Bloom' belongs to my 'Aquatic' Series. It is a larger artwork that allows you to come in close to experience this painting inspired by the sultry magic of gathering sea storms, the ocean, above and below the surface and all it’s wonder on a microscopic and macroscopic level. I delve into the beautiful parallels of art and science that I have bound with my love of floaty effervescent underwater life and bioluminescence. All the stuff that is so very real but cannot be seen with our normal everyday eyesight.

The big. The tiny. The sea. The sea storms. The surf wash and foam. Falling rain. Water molecules. Cellular forms. These things I think about and look at when I create these paintings. They can be viewed as minuscule algae and cell life just as easily as floating jelly-fish swarms or an incoming storm with all the moody tensions and fluidity of falling rain.
What I enjoy most about my paintings is they make people smile with a sense of wonderment and feelings of happiness as well as creating a talking point for years to come.
