About the artwork

This watercolour painting captures a magical moment underwater: a diver floats weightlessly next to a graceful manta ray. The ray fills almost the entire image with its broad wings, while soft light radiates down through the surface. Small details, such as the fish swimming along under the manta ray and the diver's fine air bubbles, add depth and realism to the work.

The use of colour consists mainly of shades of blue and turquoise, making the cool, calm atmosphere of the ocean immediately tangible. The contrast between the dark depths and the light rays from above creates a sense of calm and at the same time tension: the stillness of the underwater world in which every encounter is special.

This painting gives you a sense of freedom and wonder. The manta ray radiates power and elegance and symbolises the beauty of nature that surrounds us. The work fits perfectly in an interior where tranquillity, adventure and nature come together. Ideal for lovers of the sea, diving and travel.

This watercolour painting is part of a series of 9 artworks on the theme of scuba diving and the underwater world. The series shows a whale shark, manta ray, ship and plane wreck, swimming in caves and open water, among others.

My own snorkelling adventures in Australia (Great Barrier Reef), Egypt and Greece inspired me to use AI to bring this series to life.
