The beauty in the deep

This triptych is an amalgamation of all the wonders of the deep ocean. It depicts the flow of the ocean currents, the movement of the flora and fauna, the shimmering sunlight on the ocean bed, the silhouettes of the rays gliding above the surface of the ocean, the tiny fish life that dart amongst the corals and the delicate patterns on the fish and aquatic life that inhabit this world.
I used fluid acrylic paint to allow the liquid to determine the flow of the painting, much like the ocean water dictates the life on the ocean floor. The fine branches and leaves of the sea plants and corals ground the painting, allowing the fishes to dance amongst them, adding their magic.
