Creative Rationale
Over the Arctic Ocean north of eastern Siberia, extreme cold meets saturated air in a landscape of ice and endless white. The very low pressure system creates a sense of atmospheric weight and density, while the minimal wind suggests an almost suspended quality to this frozen world. I've interpreted the extreme temperature anomaly through deep blues and purples contrasted with sharp whites, using Tannahill's layered approach to build texture that evokes both the crystalline structure of ice and the raw, gestural energy of arctic storms.
