Aquarius - Woke up with this vision in my head and had to get started, maybe I need a vacation, but this underwater view is so relaxing and inviting. Teals to whites create the movement of the waves overhead. 20x26 this piece uses over 130,000 beads and is mounted on an up-cycled cabinet door.
Aquarius is an abstract composition that resembles the undulating patterns of waves in the ocean. It is composed of multiple layered wavy lines that create a sense of movement and rhythm throughout the piece. The color palette is predominantly shades of blue and green with subtle variations that evoke the different depths and translucency of sea water.
The bead texturing within each band of waves adds to the complexity of the work, giving the impression of foam and froth on the crests, as well as varying degrees of light filtering through the water. Some areas are dotted with what appears to be specks of white, suggesting sea spray or bubbles. Overall, Aquarius is tranquil and evocative, inviting the viewer to contemplate natural aquatic patterns and the peaceful but powerful essence of the sea.
