“Marine” art offers a virtually unlimited span of opportunities to wrestle with. The ocean is a metaphor for life itself with its pulse of tide, rhythm, and rejuvenating forces. It is both healing and purifying. In painting, these meditative moments are visual records shared with the viewers. My interest in art and verse is about the “littoral,”* on the coast and shore, a place of changes, of rebirth and release as well as grief and loss represented by organic cycles of lunar tides and solar seasons; the erosive power of water leads to continual changes. Looking at the sea you feel, here “I am, here…” and here you get a sense of your own presence. And here, I became involved with the idea of making the viewer present. The ever-changing moments; I similarly find resonant within painting water, which at times is about to crash down into a crescendo.
* The “littoral zone” is the part of the sea, lake or river that is close to the shore. |
