Coral Meadows

Coral MeadowsColor, movement, and life; these three aspects are the focus of Coral Meadows. The reefs vibrant hues in the foreground show off a menagerie of Florida sponges, hard corals, and a complex living environment found in few places. But, what truly gives life to the reef is the current. Using movement and defined strands of blue I wanted to create a feeling of energy that flowed across the work and guided you through this expanse of pristine coral fields.

This painting was inspired by a dive trip where a sea turtle was resting on the top of a coral atoll

I was primarily focused on creating depth with many layers of turquoise leading up to the lightest strokes at the upper right
