About this artwork
The stunning coast of Western Australia, where the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean meet the pristine, soft white sand. Her daily walks along the rocky outcrops at her local beach, inspired this beautiful seascape. Metallic acrylic paint captures the essence of the water, as it mingles and swirls around the rocks on the shoreline and the white lines represent the flow of the water to the shore. Applying the paint thickly even when liquid,…
has created a wonderfully textured surface with almost 3D depth in places while the use of metallic paint shifts in colour depending on the angle of viewing and the light bouncing off the surface, the way sunlight plays with water.

« My motto in life: If I’m not creating, I’m not living! »
Brigitte Ackland is a talented British painter based in Australia who has exhibited her work throughout both countries. Previously a full-time ceramic and mosaic artist, with additional experience in photography and embroidery, today she primarily applies her skills to painting. Living on the west coast of Australia heavily influences her work: the white sand, red earth and swirling tropical seas of the Indian Ocean dance along her canvases and leap towards the viewer. Ackland ultimately seeks to create a sense of visual harmony in her painting, and hopes they resonate with people.
