Emerald Reflection by Will Schmahl  Image: Description:

This artwork evokes the sensation of peering beneath the surface of water, where light and shadow dance across submerged textures. The upper portion, awash in deep teal, feels like the vast unknown of the ocean or the sky at dusk, while the lower half carries an ethereal, marbled effect—reminiscent of corals, icy landscapes, or shifting sands. The vertical streaks running through the composition resemble drips of ink, rainfall, or even roots stretching downward, as if the piece is in constant motion, bridging two worlds.

The interplay of opacity and translucence, along with hints of warm orange and earth tones, suggests the passage of time—memories sinking, nature evolving, or an abstract skyline dissolving into the depths. It’s both tranquil and haunting, inviting the viewer to lose themselves in its fluid layers.
