Moon gardens. Original artwork painted underwater. Print

The artwork was painted completely underwater during scuba diving with special environmentally friendly paints. This technology was developed by the author. These paints are resistant and durable, like oil paints. You looking at a sandhill with waving seaweed in the distance. You are swimming closer and can’t believe your own eyes. The sand is completely bare. What was that? A mirage? Nitrogen narcosis? Hold still for a minute and you will notice something. It is wriggling and appearing out of the sand. This is a garden eel. They spend most of their lives being buried in the sand with only their upper body exposed. At the first sign of danger, they easily hide into a safe shelter. Only a motionless underwater artist can earn the trust of the entire “garden”. I was lucky that I was a solo diver, and there was nobody around who could scare the eels. I was able to get a closer look at them and even capture their bizarre curves in the painting. When I started to work, I was suddenly attacked by a school of sergeant major fish. They started to run around shamelessly. I wasted no time in capturing them. There are more than 200 interviews and articles about my artworks in mass media of more than 30 countries. U can find some of them here. https://olgadiving.com/en/media/ ⠀ Mixed media on canvas. One of kind artwork. This artwork is framed, but It can be sent in tube or on the stretcher or in frame.
