Racing the Waves

Racing the Waves was painted in my ‘energetic’ style of painting the energy lines that you can’t normally see around you; at least how I interpret them.

Having taken up sailing fairly recently, the energy and movement that is ongoing all of the time, but particularly in high winds, inspired me to paint this piece. The movement and energy of the water, the sails and the intricacy of the rigging all add to a fast moving atmosphere.
