Sushi Art Studio gave me an awesome task to keep me motivated and inspired during long ocean passage! I asked her she does think of ocean so gave me this very creative lineart to illustrate these mischevous sea spirit in form of foxes.

I was sailing 9 days across Atlantic Ocean in the quiet realm of never-ending sapphire seascape in the company of guiding constellations in the shapes of animals and gigantic, but GIGANTIC Milky Way that resembled luminous gateway to the afterlife. On the top of all - our lives were in literally in hands of the wind...

… and THEN, I was suddenly surrounded by all forming lows, including the lowest 968mb that turned into violent hurricane Ellen, which has passed above my head to Biscay and England. It has resulted gruelling sailing against the wind at 7B force with terrible huge waves and swell, even at weak wind. There were moments that sailboat was literally flying from wave to wave, creating anti-gravity impressions and submerging bow with full force, causing many splashes - once I had hatch not fully secured and it flooded my painting...

"Give me wind, I'll give you miles... you'll hear your family soon..."
There is similar saying in the dogsledding: "give me snow..."

Acrylic and watercolours on A4 Arches paper.
