Entwined - Framed Original
"Entwined" captures the mesmerising beauty of southern basket-stars, their many-branched arms extended to capture food particles drifting by on the nocturnal ocean currents. This colour pencil drawing, set against a deep black background, invites viewers into the tranquil and mysterious world of the ocean's depths.
In this piece, the basketstars are depicted with intricate arms gracefully intertwined around seawhips. "Entwined" explores the delicate balance of life in the deep ocean, where the basketstars unfurl their arms only at night to take advantage of the drifting nutrients. This artwork highlights the intricate patterns and the sophisticated simplicity of their survival strategy. The colour pencil medium allows for a detailed portrayal, bringing out the subtle hues and textures that define these fascinating creatures.
Through this artwork, I aim to evoke a sense of wonder and respect for the complex and often hidden ecosystems of the deep sea. "Entwined" serves as a reminder of the beauty and fragility of marine life and the importance of conserving these delicate environments. It invites viewers to delve into the mysteries of the ocean and to appreciate the interconnectedness of all living things.
