Atlantic in January

Acrylic on canvas.

48x30x1.50"

"Atlantic in January" introduces a sense of refined movement and atmospheric calm to any corporate lobby, capturing the restless energy of the winter sea through a sophisticated interplay of colour and texture. Deep blues and purples create a contemplative foundation, while lighter strokes of blue, lavender, and white evoke the shifting motion of waves and ocean mist.

Warm reddish-brown accents punctuate the composition with subtle contrast, suggesting rocky coastlines or brief moments of sunlight emerging through a stormy sky. Layers of dripping paint and fluid forms add depth and dimension, encouraging viewers to pause and explore the work’s intricate surface and nuanced tonal shifts.

Evoking the mood and mystery of the Atlantic in January, where stillness and turbulence naturally coexist, this piece offers an immersive visual experience that balances abstraction with emotional resonance. Its presence brings sophistication and quiet intensity to professional spaces, fostering a sense of reflection and connection for employees and visitors alike.
