An art project
Do you love the ocean, surfing, or have a deep connection with the sea?
Waves are pure energy, often formed thousands of kilometres away, far out to sea. They are a transference of power from one element to another, from wind to water and finally to land. They can be a source of wonder and enjoyment, or fear and devastation. Sometimes even a bit of both.
I'm painting 57 waves on canvas boards that measure 5 x 7 inches. Working in oils, I aim to capture these exquisite moments where that wave energy is finally spent upon the shore.

With the tail end of a tropical low further north, there was lots of rain and equally as much energy in the ocean. Walking over the headland at Broken Head I found this gem amongst all the turbulence.

10 Pacific Juice
Outer reefs, off Pacific Ocean islands, concentrate the power of deep ocean swells as they rise quickly out of deep-sea trenches and explode on shallow coral encrusted reefs. This is a memory of one such wave I encountered in Samoa.

11 Eastern View
The stretch of coast along Eastern View, on the Surf Coast of Victoria, is afforded a degree of protection from the strong winter northwesterly winds. An elusive lefthander hugs the inside sandbar and reels off with plenty of Bass Strait push behind it.
