In this piece, Sea View, I took into consideration the huge expanses of sea views that the guests on the Norwegian Cruise liner the Prima would enjoy whilst on board, spending time considering the transient ways in which the sun would hit the water as we move through it. The challenge of painting a piece as big as this was something I have never attempted before, this piece is over nine meters tall and 4 meters wide. Painted in a studio warehouse in the south west of the UK, over a very wet winter, the pitter patter of the raindrops on the corrugated ceiling have also been an influential and inspiring factor to this work. Pools of inky water have formed into corral like shapes and gold tendrils move throughout connecting each area to form a painting whose world is reminiscent of both under and over water landscapes.
