Treasurers on Duty. The original artwork painted underwater in the sea. 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. For three days the alarm clock started ringing before dawn in my Maldives villa. Everything had been prepared since last evening, and the equipment was hidden under the pier. The sun was just getting up, and I was already going into the water to catch the amazing moment of sunrise when looking from under the water. During the day the light is distributed evenly, and this contrast disappears. The idea was to show exactly the reverse side of the water surface as no one usually sees it. The coral, the chest, and the fish were given a secondary role. Diving in early morning hours has its charms. The nightlife in the sea is still going on, and the daytime inhabitants are already waking up. Moray eels are nocturnal predators. When bright shiny objects appeared next to their favorite coral, they immediately rushed to investigate them, shifting focus to me from time to time. They soon came to see the treasure chest as their property and even began to protect it. Many fairy tales and legends tell stories about an ancient treasure, protected by the wise, but poisonous snakes. Perhaps, sea treasures should be protected by moray eels. Well, the moray eel is not poisonous, and it is not a snake, but an eel, that is a fish. However, as a ferocious guardian, it would be good enough. It is not aggressive, but I would hardly go into direct conflict with it. Its bites are not fun. For me, this painting is not only about the dawn and a new life birth. This is also about the wealth that will fall only to the hands of the person who has successfully passed the trial, and for the time being, it is secured by its devoted guardians. You can read more about my artworks in a mass media using the link https://olgadiving.com/en/media/ This artwork is framed plastic, but can be sent in tube or on the stretcher or with frame. The artwork is titled and signed on the back side. The original stretcher may have small natural evidence of being underwater. This does not affect the quality of the artwork, but only confirms the way it was made. All are shown in the last photo above.
