There are three things that bring me endless joy: being with my loved ones, nature and painting. I understood that I have been given the opportunity to combine my passion for painting with nature and, in this case, the ocean and I decided to dive in deep.
Current environmental issues have always been my focus, but my art does not attempt to provide facts or complex data. It’s created to share my love and connection with the ocean, to capture her beauty, to bring the beach indoors for all ocean lovers and give a piece of underwater wonderland to enjoy year-round. What we fall in love with, we protect.
I showcase the dazzling textures and diverse forms of coral, but they also visualize how vulnerable our reefs are. From blossoming coral to tropical fish, each captured element plays a vital part in the overall picture, just like every habitat of marine species which depend on one another to survive. Without this pillar, a major part of underwater life can become close to extinction which may entail a critical imbalance on all ecological, climate, and human levels.
The ocean is an oasis of life that is under severe threat and needs our urgent attention and art can subtly send a message without appearing to do so. Staying in balance with our natural surroundings is essential to its and our own survival. It is our duty as citizens of this planet to maintain and protect it, for us and for future generations.
