    Hey kafka, you know why it works, where the appeal is, and so on. Can I just say, I agree with you. Looks like you were buzzing when you painted it!

    Time is but a stream I go a fishing in. I drink at it; but while I drink I see the sandy bottom, and detect how shallow it is. Its thin current slides away, but eternity remains. I would drink deeper, fish in the sky, whose bottom is pebbly with stars. Henry David Thoreau The wonderful blue sea, full of history and holds the secrets of all time! Wonderful painting Nigel! Hope you are well? Thinking of you!Sx

    is this your whale skeleton (or a similar skeleton perhaps)? I can see the ribcage at he surfbreak. it’s amazing how you model the deepening water, just like it would look if you were flying over (which I guess you do :-)). love the bold thick streaks of white. the past getting not only buried in the depths anymore but also smashed to pieces by the present

    Brilliant work! Love the dynamic of the white stripes, it’s like you can walk, jump and fly over the sea!

    This is wonderful, kafka! Did I hear/read right that you’re taking your art down? That’s too bad. Sorry to hear that and all the best :-)

    Kafka, I just found your works and I am totally impressed!!! I am working on a series “continents” by being fascinated my whole live from satellitephotos or “airplainewindowviews”.
    I think I found my master in you doing these things in a more abstractly way which I really love!
    First I found my idea to create some new continents in animal or whatevershades brilliant ;))
    but now I have to overthink that concept-may be.You pushed me Kafka and I thank you for that!
    Keep on rolling, its so GREAT what you are doing!!!;)
