This is my latest series which I completed for a coastal themed Summer exhibition in Bristol (see News). My interest in seaweed has been gradually expanded over the last 12 months, where I have been amazed at the diversity and importance of these botanical forms. They have had a huge impact on the innovation and substitution of plastic packaging, skin & hair care, health supplements and coastal erosion management.
The paintings capture the structurally stunning and fabulous flowing forms of 4 different types of Sea Kelp. Each kelp painting displaying a unique form and character, using the rich colour palettes of ochre, rich yellow, brown and warm green. The layers within the blue background are created using a combination of collage, stencilling, mark making and gold line work

Nothing better than to see an original painting of mine, up close and personal. The photos don’t show the gold detailing enough or the layering of background detail. So pop over to say hello to Huw at:
