Artwork description:

A fun whimsical smiling happy blue whale. A humorous abstract macro close up texture photo of a distressed concrete wall, that has self created a piece of modern rock art..

This is part of my Bunker series, created from photographing details of WW2 defence concrete bunkers and gun emplacements from around Britain's coast.
These abstract pictures are created naturally over time from the weathering and ageing of the concrete and rust from bolts and nails embedded in the walls.

In this series I have tried to show that even simple, neglected, often over looked, mundane and in this case ugly and terrible places have beauty hidden within them.
These photos have not been manipulated in any way apart from light photo editing (cropping and exposure adjustment) and as such can be seen in situ around Britain's coastline.

Professionally printed on Hahnemühle archival quality paper using the latest archival quality inks.
