DANCING IN STRANGE SEAS (2023)
Acrylic on Canvas - 8" x 12"

The other day I woke from a vivid dream. I was stranded on a deserted island—but quite happy about it as I was swimming! 1/3

Floating in a dark bubbly sea, a naked woman with flowing red hair spreads her arms wide, turning playfully to draw a transparently patterned cape behind her. Curious while passing by, a green sea dragon cranes its neck. Its sinuous body curves and rolls before finally looping back at the tip of its spaded tail. Foreclaws loll as it pauses between strokes, entranced by the aquatic dance. The woman holds out the ends of the jellyfish-like veil and it shifts in pattern as it flows in front of her. Leopard spots flare fiery in contrast passing over pale skin. Extending past her, the pattern morphs into abstract splotches much like the eyespots on a peacock feather, growing in size and shifting from green to blue to purple as the veil trails off panel.
