This is my second Celebration Series painting of crashing waves and seafoam swirling around the Indian River Inlet south jetty tower in two months. The first tower painting, "Towering Sea," sold within two hours.
I seldom paint the same subject twice, but in the case of Swirling Sea I visit that spot often, observing the way the surf moves around this part of the Atlantic coast and I love painting this kind of action, so when a second person wished to purchase "Towering Sea," I agreed to paint the location again, but differently.
"Swirling Sea" is larger and the wave action is different. I love the way the flying sea foam is moving in circles around the tower. The sea foam repeated the swirling motions several times while I watched one blustery day this fall. I'd never seen patterns just like this before, and it was a pleasure to paint. I hope you can feel the energy!
I'm' enjoying doing this series of celebration paintings. There will only be 25 in the series, and they're taking a bit more time than I imagined when I came up with the idea for them, so they will debut throughout a one-year period. I'm using the same glazing methods and detail as my larger studio paintings, and it takes time to get each one to feel "right." I hope you enjoy these little windows into "my world" here near the shore.
