Rock Pool
This piece was created for a solo 2024 exhibition 'A Sense of Place' inspired by the southwest of England. A rock pool complete with sea anenome, starfish, sea urchin and seaweed is depicted in this abstract acrylic painting on a wood panel. This artwork was created using the alcohol technique whereby alcohol is sprinkled into watery acrylic paint to create 'cells'. The outcome of this initial process suggested this subject to me. Memories of childhood visits to the beaches and 'fishing' with a little net were brought to mind. Detailing and rich textures bring the underwater scene to life, while the abstract style infuses the composition with energy and wonder, celebrating the hidden beauty of coastal marine ecosystems.
