The waves broke...

Here's a few wave paintings, on canvas and glass, from the last few months or so. I just love trying to capture not just the look of the wave but emotional response that goes with it.

And here's a little paragraph from Virginia Woolf, a favourite from art college days....

“The waves broke and spread their waters swiftly over the shore. One after another they massed themselves and fell; the spray tossed itself back with the energy of their fall. The waves were steeped deep-blue save for a pattern of diamond-pointed light on their backs which rippled as the backs of great horses ripple with muscles as they move. The waves fell; withdrew and fell again, like the thud of a great beast stamping.”
