Inspiration to appear on wall card: The inspiration for this painting came from the calm that follows a fierce storm. After witnessing nature’s raw power, I was struck by the peaceful stillness that settled over the landscape once the storm had passed. The air felt fresher, the wind died down, and the sky had just started to clear. The contrast between the storm’s chaos and the serene aftermath inspired me to capture that fleeting moment when nature’s power retreats, leaving behind a sense of renewal and quiet beauty.

Inspiration to appear on wall card: I am trying to understand the forms of the waves and the sculpting effects of the water on the sand. In this piece, I was also experimenting with intense colour to see how it will affect the sense of movement. Lately, I have really been enjoying working larger as well. I am enjoying the increased sense of drama that the larger size creates.

Inspiration to appear on wall card: While I was painting this, I had two visiting artists painting with me in my studio. We were talking and working at the same time. I felt that I was in a very unconscious state of mind, a very spontaneous mood, just laying in colour with abandon. It wasn't until the next day that I decided to see what the cosmos was doing on that particular day. I discovered that Venus was transiting into the constellation of Pisces. This is my version of how I think that might look like.
