In this intimate close up landscape series of the seafloor (or sea floor), I research my subject by sitting and observing on location at our island beaches and gathering photographic references and video to later use in the studio. For this series I am applying the perspectives of ‘landscape of the small’ and ‘a child’s view’ in my paintings. The paintings are completed in various sizes using elements from several images, videos, my memory and a few plein air studies. In this reparative, nature-centric, autoethnographic painting practice-led research, my intention for these paintings is to continue to find ways to enhance my sense of inner peace through nature. This series aims to connect us with nature's quiet yet profound rhythms, offering a visual meditation on the resilience and grace found within the sea and along its shores.
