Blue Lagoon (2021) is a large-scale acrylic painting that immerses the viewer in waves of layered, luminous blue. Part of my Geometric Splendor Collection, this 90 x 90 inch canvas explores serenity and movement within a single dominant hue — using geometry not to contain emotion, but to guide it.
Built with transparent washes and opaque gestures, the painting evokes water, light, and distance without representing any of them directly. It’s less a depiction of a place and more a sensation — the feeling of standing in a space that hums with stillness, where time slows and attention softens.
While it nods to the immersive fields of Helen Frankenthaler, particularly her staining techniques and atmospheric surfaces, Blue Lagoon brings a structural clarity to the experience. There’s rhythm here — implied geometry beneath the color. The architecture of feeling.
The palette shifts subtly: cerulean, ultramarine, cobalt — not to dazzle but to deepen. The size of the piece enhances this effect, surrounding the viewer in a contemplative sea of tone and texture. From a distance, it feels like floating. Up close, the details reveal themselves — tiny currents, moments of disruption, transparency that holds space for memory.
In the context of the Geometric Splendor Collection, Blue Lagoon is expansive and sensorial. It opens the collection outward — making room for abstraction as environment, emotion, and escape.
