The Ocean Inside Me is a powerful work that captures the emotional depth of the human being through colour and texture. This contemporary portrait of a young man is painted using a palette knife technique, which adds texture and dynamism to the work. The vibrant palette of blues, oranges, violets and yellows evokes both the calm and intensity of the ocean, reflecting the inner emotional richness of the subject, who conveys a deep serenity and inner strength.
His gaze, intense and golden, seems to contain untold stories. As if he carries within him a sea of thoughts, healed wounds, dreams still floating. The thick texture, built with a palette knife, invites you to approach, to touch, to feel each layer of what we are and sometimes hide.
This work is for those who understand that within each of us, as in the ocean, dwells the calm and the storm.
