About the artwork

This artwork reveals the timeless beauty and versatility of clear blue in art. It presents a clear, almost meditative seascape that captures the deep and multi-faceted meanings of the hue blue.

The contemplative scene stretches far into the distance, creating a sense of vastness and freedom. The clear, azure sky reflects the ocean and emphasises the boundless depth and majesty of the water. It is a symbol of peace and tranquillity as it calms the senses and creates an atmosphere of serenity. The vertically towering rocks visually create the necessary balance.

The surface of the water shines in different shades of blue and creates a harmonious softness. The gentle waves lend the scene dynamism and convey a calm movement. The softness of the water contrasts with the majestic grandeur of the ocean and creates a balanced scene.

A band of clouds on the horizon delineates the scene and emphasises the infinity of the sea. In the distance, with excellent depth effect, are bands of clouds that unite in the clear blue of the water, creating a harmonious fusion.

Clear blue in art is masterfully used in this painting to depict the depth of the water, the vastness of the horizon and the tranquillity of the sky. It reminds us of the versatility of this hue and its ability to convey a wide range of meanings and emotions. In this work, clear blue symbolises freedom, peace and the sublime beauty of nature, and it invites the viewer to immerse themselves in this tranquil and contemplative world.
