With this piece titled “Ocean Blue”, I became interested in the idea of creating an image that would best convey my feelings and affinity towards the current state of our oceans by use of color, simplicity, mood, and nuance. Painted in deep hues in a darkened palette, this work acts as an emotional deposit of collective experiences and reflects on the disjointing of human stability. Our oceans—these vast complex masses—are the web that holds all living life together. Once that's broken, the structure of all that exists on this planet will be in peril.
