So I came across a new artist by the name of Martin Machado and immediately was drawn to his surreal, beautiful seascape paintings. His work is an original take on something pretty ancient, seascapes. Yet I find them pretty refreshing and get the feeling I'm actually with him on the sea, while looking at his work. The colors are spot on, from that kind of early, sleepy sun coming up over the horizon, to a stormy, dark night sky. And the fact he just splashes the water color across the page and then fills in his detail is something I really appreciated. It's kind of messy and makes me think of some paper you might find on the floor of some boat, all wet and forgotten.
