We were chilling in the rocky Plage du Bau Rouge. The evening water was getting a bit nervous, with aggressive waves. They were foamy-splashing against the rocky shore.

Those splash were truly entertaining. I closed the book I was reading – “Strange Buildings” by Uketsu – and admired them for a while.

I felt the hurge to draw one of those waves.

I have to admit, seeing it live it’s a more intense experience, and I also understood why so many chose it as a subject: “A bigger Splash” by David Hockney, “The Great Wave off Kanagawa” by Hokusai, and The Toei Company ocean logo.

For this artwork I used for the first time two new tools for watercolor I bought at Marseille: Masking fluid and a Bigger brush.
