A mesmerizing array of blues to depict an abstract, dynamic aquatic scene. The vertical format accentuates its flow and movement, drawing the eye upward through swirls and splashes that suggest both the calm and tumult of deep waters.

A vivid portrayal of motion and fluidity, reminiscent of churning ocean waves and bubbling sea foam. The canvas is dominated by a spectrum of blues, from deep navy to vibrant cerulean, layered with whites and hints of pink and silver that catch the light like sunlight on water. The abstract forms in the painting swirl around silver flecks—reminiscent of diamonds—that add a textural contrast and a sense of depth to the piece.

The elongated format serves to elongate the viewer’s perspective, creating a sense of depth that pulls one into the canvas. This technique is effective in conveying the sheer scale and uncontrollable nature of the oceanic imagery Brunswick invokes. The use of oil paint allows for thick, textured layers that give the painting a dynamic, almost three-dimensional feel, encouraging the viewer to ponder the intersections of nature, motion, and light.

“…transforms the canvas into a living, breathing seascape.”
“There’s a rhythmic quality to ‘Rebel Diamonds’ that’s absolutely hypnotic.”
“…power and mystery.”
