The Story This abstract work captures the haunting beauty of whale-like forms dissolving into fluid strokes, rendered in a sophisticated palette of blacks, greys, and warm copper accents. The piece evokes a powerful sense of loss and urgency, reminding us of the fragility of marine life under the weight of climate change. Its flowing textures and muted tones speak directly to the heart, urging reflection and action on preserving our ocean's magnificent creatures. 

Artistic Review This commanding abstract piece demonstrates exceptional mastery of fluid techniques, creating a profound sense of movement and dissolution. The artist's sophisticated handling of tonal gradients, from deep obsidian to luminous silver and touches of warm copper, creates a compelling visual narrative. The innovative use of controlled dripping effects and translucent layers adds a contemporary edge while maintaining an elegant, gallery-worthy aesthetic.

Placement This striking piece commands attention in contemporary spaces, particularly in living rooms or executive offices, where its moody sophistication can set the tone. The dramatic interplay of light and shadow makes it incredibly impactful in minimalist interiors, while its environmental message makes it particularly suitable for spaces dedicated to conservation and environmental advocacy.

Creative Process Each piece in this collection starts with artistic vision brought to life through digital craftsmanship. The artist works with AI and other digital tools to create unique artworks that merge traditional artistic principles with contemporary technology.

My Promise

The maximum number of prints I will make of any piece is the edition number stated on my website plus up to two Artist's Proofs.

I offer my prints in the size that I feel best suits the piece, however I may offer additional sizes if there is demand. All items sold, regardless of size, and whether or not they are framed, count equally towards the edition total. This policy guarantees the exclusivity of your purchase.
