Figurative seascapes & landscapes oil/acrylics 2013 is my year of painting water.  Opening in February and finishing in December, the show, titled SPLASH!, features rough seas, calm seas, peaceful inland lakes and gushing waterfalls on canvas and board. Sometimes my work depicts sail boats, swimmers, fishermen and surfers but water is the common denominator. Working in or under water is very challenging. In these situations, sketching is impossible so I rely on the underwater camera to captu
