Neptune
This moody abstract composition evokes the mysterious depths of the ocean, with swirling layers of deep blues and teals that seem to shift and flow like underwater currents. The artist has created a sense of infinite space through subtle variations in tone, from near-black shadows to lighter, cloudy areas that suggest light filtering down through water. Small specks scattered throughout the surface add texture and movement, like particles suspended in the deep sea.
Catherine de Potter's work here captures something both peaceful and slightly unsettling about the ocean's vastness. Named after the Roman god of the sea, "Neptune" doesn't try to show us anything specific but instead invites us to get lost in its atmospheric depths. The painting has a contemporary, minimalist quality while still feeling organic and alive, achieved through what appears to be a watercolor or ink-based technique that allows the pigments to bleed and blend naturally into one another.
