Headland Whirlpool is inspired by aerial views of headlands when the force of the ocean meets a rocky landmass.
These types of coastlines usually have high cliffs and a base of rocks formed from the erosion of the water. As a child, I used to love clambering over these rocky shores in low tide full of holes that hid crabs and little fish.
A palette of blue, green, yellow ochre and white creates a dramatic and beautiful sense of movement and a focal point of churning bubbling water.
The painting is on a smooth artist-quality canvas with a fluid painting technique style.
This unique artwork cannot be replicated. It is created using various methods to control flow, connections between colours, and layering to reveal underlying colours and bring depth to the painting.
