Original artwork description:

This expressive Oil Pastel on Black Paper drawing was done “en plein air” in the very beautiful location of Nusa Dua, Bali. The reflections of the surrounding trees and sunlight on this lake really interested me. They were ever changing and when the fish came near the surface they would break up the colours and make small ripples on the water which changed the colours and shapes even more. As the sun came out it added bright white highlights to the surface adding to the contrasting colours.
A note to International Buyers:
Shipping rates have increased in price all around the world due to Covid and other complications. Due to this I have had to increase the the cost of shipping my artworks in line with the Delivery Companies. I will always strive to find the cheapest possible option for the customer (usually my local POST OFFICE EMS Recorded Delivery, but unfortunately they don’t deliver worldwide at the moment) If the amount of shipping charged at purchase is less than the shipping company charges then I will refund the difference to the customer. This refund will be done after the picture has arrived safely and has been accepted.
Any import duties, taxes and charges that may be payable are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges, if applicable, will be the responsibility of the buyer. Please message me to check if this might affect your purchase.
