I started painting waves in 2009 following hours and hours photographing them crashing onto the beach in Pringle Bay, South Africa. I could watch them all day. If the saying is true that all artists have a theme, then this is mine. I find them to be one of the most impressive and beautiful sights in nature and I have spent too much time trying to understand and paint them.
Water covered most of the Earth’s surface and I feel very much at home on or in it, sailing, swimming and diving but underwater scenes are for the camera not the paint brush.
