The Stormy Sea at Night

"Turner-esque Nocturne" Digital Painting by Lauren Elyse S. 2018.

I don't remember the first time I saw Turner's abstract atmospheric paintings, but I do remember how they made me feel. It was like a lightening bolt - they woke me up. The energy in them is insane. I particularly love Fishermen at Sea and, related in style, Whistler’s Nocturne Black and Gold: The Falling Rocket. My worship of a stormy sea rolls deep, and so here is a little digital painting in the vein of Turner with a mind towards Whistler.
