Textured Lines on the Sea

Description

This vibrant and highly tactile piece, titled “Textured Lines on the Sea” is a mesmerising work of mixed media that masterfully combines traditional painting with dimensional art. Created with acrylic and puff paint on a 60cm x 30cm canvas, the artwork is a bold and dynamic exploration of colour and texture.

The dominant deep and cerulean blue hues form a dynamic background, evoking the depths and movement of the ocean. Swirls and waves of black and deep blue acrylic create a sense of fluid motion, pulling the viewer’s eye across the canvas.

What truly sets this piece apart is the brilliant use of puff paint. Raised, golden lines with a glossy finish trace intricate, ornate patterns that resemble both ancient calligraphy and flowing currents. These lines catch the light and cast subtle shadows, adding a sculptural quality to the painting. The contrast between the flat, matte acrylic and the raised, reflective puff paint creates a stunning three-dimensional effect.

Interspersed throughout the work are splashes of vivid red and yellow, often in circular or teardrop shapes, that seem to float and burst against the cool blue background. These elements add moments of intense warmth and energy, suggesting hidden treasures or light reflecting off the water’s surface.

“Textured Lines on the Sea” is a compelling artwork that appeals to both sight and touch. Its rich textures and vibrant colours make it a standout piece for any collector who appreciates dynamic and innovative abstract art. The portrait orientation is perfect for a narrow wall or as a striking accent piece in a modern interior.
