Hello there, It is a while since I wrote anything on here.
One of my all time favourite places to go is the beach, I can literally sit for hours and watch the beautiful waves. Not only is it a feast for the eyes but I also love the sound of the waves crashing on the seashore. Sadly I don't live that close to the seaside so when we go it is a real treat. I am hoping to go to the beach in a few weeks time. Whenever we go on holiday its not a holiday unless we go to the beach to see the waves.
There is something so calming about waves watching them lap on the seashore, those sounds can even put you to sleep. The interesting thing about waves that despite their calming affects if you don't get out of their way you can find yourself in trouble. They can literally sweep you out to sea, crash you against the rocks or drown you where you lay.
Recently I have decided to pick up again on the waves theme. I discovered that I have painted quite a few of these but I want to explore these ideas even more. Some time ago I painted one that was called sound waves. I realise that these are more like patterns and a much more simplified version of waves but nonetheless they are wave in shapes. As I have been thinkng of waves they are not just found at the seaside but they can be found in lots of other areas of life. This is something I will be exploring in the coming months.
I started another wave painting the other week which I have finished tonight but funnily enough the image has gone in a totally different direction and looks like someting completely different. I will be posting this on my social media in a few days.
As an artist it is an interesting phenomen that you can think you know how something is going to turn out. You can have an idea in your head but it can go in a completely different direction. I could have continued with the direction I was going but I couldn't ignore the shapes that were screaming at me to be outlined.
More wave paintings coming soon or at least thats where they will begin but we will have to see where the end up.
Catch you soon
