Oil painting on canvas 36 x 26in (91.4 x 66 x 2cm)
This dreamlike original oil painting merges elements of the ocean and cosmos, depicting a mother humpback whale and her calf within a celestial tapestry of deep blues, turquoise, and purple, evoking both the night sky and ocean depths, and adorned with tiny star-like lights. Layers of multicolored glazes create a dynamic effect, altering the appearance under different lighting conditions—sometimes darker, sometimes glowing, shifting between blue and teal. A distinctive feature of this piece is the constellation Cetus, subtly woven into the pattern of reflected stars. This harmonious blend of marine and celestial motifs invites contemplation of the mystery and majesty of nature and the universe.
