Scroll Coral and Angelfish Painting

“My favorite subject is marines, especially coral reef scenes. The living reef never fails to inspire me. Underwater is a world of wonder, beauty, life, color and mystery.” A Florida resident, William became a certified diver in 1985 and has dived or snorkeled off Florida, the Caribbean, Hawaii and Africa. “My art is an interpretation of a world that has been largely overlooked by artists. Scuba was not invented until the twentieth century and by then the art world had migrated to abstract. It is a world of endless variety. The mystery of the sea suggests soft edges, a scroll coral suggests hard edges, a queen angelfish suggests strong color, while a cloudy stormy ocean suggests low chroma.”
