Dive  July 25th 2025

You could say, another in my Blue Series – if that doesn’t seem too pretentious!  Admittedly we don’t ever enjoy sea water clarity such as I have depicted around these shores; and, I think that such conditions would be bad news for some marine wildlife,  So, this is where Artistic Licence has a part to play.  I know that an expert watercolourist could create this visual effect, but I’d be afraid of overworking, and turning the colours muddy: oils let you gradually find your way.
