The architecture of water

I will often sit on our beach examining the architecture of water, how it moves, how it is affected by light, its transparency, or how a wave starts to rise, curl and fall. I find the mystery of this dynamic and ancient entity utterly compelling. My depictions are purely of water, without land, sky or scale.

The paintings are inspired by multiple photographs I take at sunse when the waves are so luminous they could be lit from within.
