ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"Naples' Jewel: The Bottlenose Dolphin" is a vibrant, large-scale painting that captures the essence of one of Florida's most beloved marine creatures - the Bottlenose Dolphin. Erupting from the ocean, the dolphin is depicted up close, allowing viewers to truly appreciate the beauty and grace of this magnificent creature. The artist has masterfully rendered the dolphin's form using thick, bold brush strokes of acrylic paint on canvas. The choice of vivid and pastel colors skillfully mirrors the hues found in the surrounding ocean, whilst contrasting splashes of paint highlight the movement and energy of the dolphin as it breaks through the water's surface. Created in the style of expressionist colors, the painting is a symphony of blues - from the soft hues of the water to the more vibrant tones of the dolphin's skin. The splashes of paint, bright and energetic, further evoke the dynamism of the scene and the playful nature of the dolphin. "Naples' Jewel: The Bottlenose Dolphin" is more than just a painting; it's a celebration of marine life in Naples, Florida. It's a testament to the undulating dance between the ocean and its inhabitants, captured in the artist's unique, expressive style.

My paintings are an intricate weaving of the elements of Impressionist masters like Monet and Post-impressionist artist Van Gogh. Each piece inspired by the vastness, splendor and beauty of nature and the outdoors. Exemplifying the medium’s pure expressive potential to transform the visible world by creating movement using intense complementary colors and layered energetic brush strokes. I desire to create a pictorial symphony that immerses the viewer in a visually stimulating, playful and dreamlike viewing experience. Each landscape focuses on the philosophy to be transformed, uplifted and tap into the subconscious by conveying a sense of comfort for the mind to wander the horizon of the image, reflect and meditate. "I want the unobtainable. Other artists paint a bridge, a house, a boat, and that's the end. They are finished. I want to paint the air which surrounds the bridge, the house, the boat, the beauty of the air in which these objects are located, and that is nothing short of impossible." -Claude Monet “I experience a period of frightening clarity in those moments when nature is so beautiful. I am no longer sure of myself, and the paintings appear as in a dream.” -Vincent Van Gogh
