"Fathom" - dreamy, abstract seascape on canvas

There is a lovely depth to this painting. Painted in many layered glazes of turquoise, blue, magenta and yellow over a textured and colllaged surface. The collage pieces are pretty, esoteric circles. These are matched by the drips, drawn circles and textured circles throughout the canvas. This painting is calm and dreamy, reminiscent of a deep blue ocean.
