Natural swimming pools at the Azores
Painting is not about realism. It is about capturing a subjective reality. This painting of the sea challenges the idea of traditional realism by leaving parts deliberately "unfinished."
These unfinished sections guide the viewer's focus, encouraging them to question what it means
for something to be "finished" and inviting a deeper reflection on the act of creation itself.
Rather than striving for realistic representation, the painting captures a subjective reality
—one that prioritizes emotion, mood, and the intangible qualities of the sea.
The work speaks more to the essence of the experience rather than an exact replication,
creating a space where the viewer can engage with the emotional truth of the moment.
