Region 30°N, 150°E

Creative rationale

Over the East China Sea southeast of Japan, this oceanic region experiences a humid, windy atmosphere with moderate precipitation and cool temperatures. The high humidity of 92% creates deeply translucent color washes that layer and pool across the canvas, while the substantial wind from the southwest drives diagonal flows of stained color. The cool temperature anomaly manifests as cerulean and teal dominating the composition, with warm salmon and ochre bleeding in from the edges where atmospheric mixing occurs.
