THE OCEAN’S WHISPER ELARA JOURNEY
DOYEN THE BEACH is a deliberately glitchy mixed media composite . One where the ever ephemeral light, shade, weather / texture combine as one to reflect my impressions of a typical day at the beach .
Hand in hand, where dreams align, In a world of endless time. Laughter floats on gentle breeze, Hearts at ease, in love’s sweet ease. Bound by joy, their spirits light, Together, walking through the night. In this moment, life unfurled, Two souls, one heart, against the world. COUPLE: PAINTING BY DAVID IRISH
