Fresh Air at Sea is a digital artwork created by a fusion between a drawing and a painting. The drawing was created using drawing techniques of pencil and charcoal and the painting consists of multiple layers of various painting techniques.
The work was inspired by a photograph I took in the dunes near Kwade Hoek. It was springtime. The helmet was still tinged with brown but wonderfully full. The sun was shining and a moderate to strong wind was blowing.
That grass on the dunes always attracts me. I especially like the way it moves in the wind and how the sunshine can lighten it up beautifully. That is what I wanted to emphasize in this work of art. The gradient of color created by the sunlight and the wavy lines in the grass.
I also feel that there is a strong wind because the beach grass is pushed back by an invisible force. This work of art makes me think I am on the beach at the foot of the dunes, getting a breath of fresh air.
