"Swirling Sea," Celebration Series #6/25 PRINTS (original sold)

This is my second Celebration Series painting of crashing waves and seafoam swirling around the Indian River Inlet south jetty tower in two months. The first tower painting, "Towering Sea," sold within two hours.

I seldom paint the same subject twice, but in the case of Swirling Sea I visit that spot often, observing the way the surf moves around this part of the Atlantic coast and I love painting this kind of action, so when a second person wished to purchase "Towering Sea," I agreed to paint the location again, but differently.

"Swirling Sea" is larger and the wave action is different. I love the way the flying sea foam is moving in circles around the tower. The sea foam repeated the swirling motions several times while I watched one blustery day this fall. I'd never seen patterns just like this before, and it was a pleasure to paint. I hope you can feel the energy!

The original is sold, but there are 6" x 12" open stock gicle'es available online here.
