Blue Sky, Blue Water, and a Ruffle of Waving White

The image was taken in the open seas of the Caribbean and is part of the collection called “Anatomy of the Caribbean Skies”.

In this work the blue of the sky and blue of the sea are both almost homogeneous and peaceful.  They are almost unencumbered but for the small white wave.  

The heavens are a rich resource for the artist.  The art is part of a series that explores the changing vista of the heavens.  It is also a rich resource for moods and inspiration; gray skies, blue skies, sunshine, the rain, sunrise and sunset.

“Blue Sky, Blue Water, and a Ruffle of Waving White”

In this work the blue of the sky and blue of the sea are both almost homogeneous and peaceful.  They are almost unencumbered but for the small white wave .  

Some quotes about the blue sea and blue sky:

“Far out in the ocean, where the water is as blue as the prettiest cornflower, and as clear as crystal, it is very, very deep; so deep, indeed, that no cable could fathom it: many church steeples, piled one upon another, would not reach from the ground beneath to the surface of the water above. There dwell the Sea King and his subjects.”  Hans Christian Andersen
Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see  
 -Irving Berlin

“The sky grew darker, painted blue on blue, one stroke at a time, into deeper and deeper shades of night.”
― Haruki Murakami,
