Sea Weed Why Paint That

The previous watercolor has an abstract design which guides the viewer's eye due to its circular nature. As the ocean creates a vortex with the movement of the waves it leaves the sea weed high and dry as the tide declines and picks up the sea weed again on the returning high tide, moving it to a new arrangement and location
The painting was a nature arrangement with subtle artistic changes to express shape, color and the effect of light and shadow. Why- because it had not been seen in other work, it had a lot of interesting shadows in a shallow depth, memories of walks on the beach and it challenged the high key brightness of a rare sunny day on the Olympic Peninsula .
