Story / Additional InfoThe title refers to the images in this abstract painting that are reminiscent of biological forms such as amoebas and other microscopic or undersea life forms. The artist often explores tide pools on her trips to the ocean and is fascinated by the flora and fauna of the ocean. She likes to create abstract paintings that have a remote connection to reality. There is a slightly raised undercoating of acrylics that gives the painting texture. This painting is somewhat of a departure for this artist, but she is always experimenting with new ideas.
