Undercurrent
Oils on canvas 50cm x 50cm
2014
Something different - some may not like this but I have been experimenting with a partially traditional picture split between an abstract form to describe an alternative view.
In this picture I have tried to express that underneath a calm veil of apparent normality there is often an undercurrent of turmoil or something else which is in conflict with our perceived view.
The normality is underlined by the retaining posts which are used to strengthen the banks of the river and therefore reinforce the view that all is under control, although what lies beyond is obscured.
Nothing is ever as it appears on the surface.
Have a wonderful weekend friends and beware of undercurrents ;-)
Reactions welcomed on the painting.
I appreciate all your comments.
