Sea Sirens – Ultramarine and Cobalt Teal Blue

I’ve been lured. By the sirens of the sea.

Glorious deep ultramarine blue with a whisper of violet you have to know is there to really see.

And then,  there is my magnificent so enticing,  cobalt teal blue.

I’ve been to the sea. The Indian Ocean, and she wants me again.

 

 

 

 

i walked the sands

played for awhile upon the shiny damp salted shores

 

i gazed into the sculptures she made

those sea forms that rose, created from sea foam

 

exquisite in shape and form and loveliness

 

 

i sat for a fleeting afternoon

warmed upon the dunes

 

i shot a thousand shots

to try, to capture that millisecond

 

that transcendent moment in time

 

 

 

i left the bewitching tempestuous seas

returning home nearly wrung dry

 

i painted the immersion of what i felt

and all the while

 

that deep tapping, that inner knowing

 

the sea sirens of ultramarine and cobalt teal blues

would lure me back

 

 

 

 

I will finish with the second half in the next post.

In that post you’ll see my creations from the sea, in painting form …. abstract style, in oils.
