Creating this painting became a therapeutic journey for me. While immersing myself in books about asking the universe for guidance and positive change, I felt inspired to craft an artwork that would serve as a soothing escape during the painting process. The subject of the piece is a serene view of the ocean off the coast of Killiney in Dublin—a place where a friend of mine frequently engages in sea swimming.

Being fortunate enough to receive my friend's incredible photos from these sea swimming adventures, I found immense pleasure in getting lost in the process of bringing these scenes to life on canvas. This painting becomes more than a visual representation; it's a manifestation of the calming energy sought during its creation—a reflection of the peaceful and transformative influence of nature on the artistic spirit.
