Come along with me to the Unesco World Heritage site of Bikini Atoll - site of post WW2 U.S. nuclear testing and now home to a graveyard of WW2 shipwrecks that have become stunning artificial reefs.
Experiencing the Sea of Cortez above and below the waterline has brought the fire back to my painting practice. Waking up every day and bathing in the beauty of each pink and coral coloured sunrise while staring at the incredible geology of the rugged coast of the Baja peninsula glowing in the growing light was a blessing and it spurred the creation of so many new paintings!
Google the best shore diving in the world and it's a given that Bonaire will be in the top five of all those lists and for good reason - the reef that surrounds the entire island is one of the healthiest unbroken strips of coral reef I've ever seen and when I got home, I had plenty of inspiration for more paintings!
