At the edge of the sea - close encounters with whales

EXPLORING THE ELUSIVE UNDER-WATER WORLD OF WHALES AND DOLPHINS

Sitting quietly at the edge of the sea, I am inspired to engage with these mysterious mammals of the deep and to share their enduring and extra-ordinary stories.
As an artist I speak of their grace and majesty through a range of mediums, striving to capture the translucent blues and greens of their underwater worlds. My paintings are rendered in airbrush, acrylic or pastel while I explore three-dimensional form through the timeless medium of bronze sculpture.
