Abstract Seascapes featured in the UPPERCASE magazine

Three watercolor paintings from my Abstract Seascapes series are featured in the current issue of the UPPERCASE magazine.

In December I painted a little series of abstract seascapes in response to a call for submissions from UPPERCASE magazine. The theme was “fluid, floating, watery and oceanic“. I love everything about water and we are currently living in the Bay Area between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, so this theme felt really close to my heart.

I see Ocean as something constant and ever-changing at the same time. It’s always there, but every time you come to the shore it will be different. I tried to capture these impressions in my watercolor paintings.

These seascapes are painted without using brushes, just by pouring watercolors on paper. I mixed the colors I needed in little ceramic bowls and then poured those mixtures on paper at different angles trying to capture seaside scenes I envisioned.

The UPPERCASE magazine is always a great source of inspiration for me, and I am honored to see my watercolor seascapes featured on its’ pages.
