Creative Rationale

Over the Atlantic Ocean west of the Canary Islands and Morocco, where oceanic currents meet continental influences, the moderate wind speeds and high humidity create a dynamic yet softly atmospheric scene. The substantial pressure gradient suggests shifting weather patterns, while the temperature anomaly and light precipitation indicate a transitional atmospheric state filled with moisture and energy. I've interpreted this through Frankenthaler's staining technique using layered washes of ocean blues, atmospheric grays, and warm earth tones that bleed and pool across the canvas, with wind-driven movement creating flowing, organic forms that suggest both water and air in constant motion.
