I Miss the Sea...

Do you feel disconnected from the ocean? Do you long to be near the coast? That is exactly how I felt.

When I lived in London I missed the sea. Every holiday I had, weekend trips and time off I headed to the ocean. I don't know if I actually realised just how much I missed it, but I would dream of warm sand, salty water, waves crashing against the shore as stood on packed tubes on my commute to work.

I know we can't all get up and leave to go live by the coast. Life is full of commitments, restraints and restrictions. BUT- what if you brought the sea to you?

Sounds great- but how realistic is that?

Very. In my previous blog posts I talk a lot about the impact of your surroundings. Why do you feel so good on holiday? Why do you feel so energised after swimming in the sea? It isn't just because you are not at work... 

The ocean has a profound effect on us. Its energy is continuous and abundant and when we become part of that we absorb that energy. Makes sense, right? So if we are far away from it, whether it be in a city, town or countryside, that energy wanes until we replenish it on our next visit to the ocean.

But that energy comes in many forms. Artwork is proven to emit energy to whomever looks at it. It is part of the energy that we surround ourselves in, in our own homes. I have always promoted the importance of surrounding yourself with beauty to elevate your mood and wellbeing. Art is a big part of that. Surround yourself with art that keeps the sea close. Keep your connection to the sea. 

Take a look at my canvas prints here. I have used natural colours and painted how the sea makes me feel- free, calm and joyous.
