Blue Seas by David Ridley
An original mixed media seascape by David Ridley, with a luminous teal and ivory cloud formation opening above dark hills, light rippling across the sea in a wide panoramic format. Available framed in black or white.
Blue Seas by David Ridley is a wide, panoramic seascape built around a striking, symmetrical break in the weather. Deep teal and slate-blue cloud gathers at the top of the composition, worked with rich texture characteristic of Ridley’s mixed media technique, before parting into a luminous band of pale cream and white where light floods through onto a pair of dark, silhouetted hills. That light spills down into the water below, rippling outward in long horizontal streaks of teal, silver and soft gold across a deep, textured sea.
The panoramic format gives the piece real scale, drawing the eye along the horizon, while the near-mirrored symmetry between the cloud above and its reflection below lends a calm, meditative quality even as the tonal contrast carries genuine drama. Ridley’s mixed media surface, built up in layers, gives the cloud formation a tactile, almost sculptural presence against the smoother, more fluid handling of the sea.
As an original piece, signed by the artist, this is a one-of-a-kind work available framed in either black or white, both finishes allowing the painting’s cool, luminous palette to take centre stage. Its wide format makes it a strong choice for a statement placement above a sofa or bed.
