About the Item

Nikki Baxendale's "Kelp Web II" stands as a testament to the artist's ability to transform the canvas into a captivating realm of abstract beauty. This original seascape painting, created with the masterful use of oil on canvas, draws viewers into a world where the sea comes alive in a symphony of colors and textures. The artist's signature, a mark of completion and assurance, graces the corner of the painting, indicating its readiness to be displayed and admired. "Kelp Web II" is a textured abstract seascape, skillfully crafted to convey the dynamic nature of the ocean's surface. Each stroke of the brush seems to weave a tapestry of waves, creating an intricate and mesmerizing pattern. The color scheme employed by Baxendale—dominated by shades of blue, turquoise, and white—conjures the essence of the sea. The various hues of blue symbolize depth and calmness, while the pops of turquoise inject a sense of vitality into the composition. White accents, reminiscent of frothy waves, add a touch of movement and realism to the abstract scene. This painting is a profound study of the ocean's surface, capturing the energy and rhythm of the sea in a unique and imaginative manner. The textures on the canvas invite tactile exploration, allowing viewers to almost feel the ebb and flow of the underwater world. "Kelp Web II" serves as a testament to the artist's ability to convey the complexity and beauty of nature through the language of abstraction. For art connoisseurs eager to bring the allure of "Kelp Web II" into their spaces, the painting is currently available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art, Chelsea, and online. Don't miss the opportunity to own an original seascape by Nikki Baxendale, where the ocean's essence is captured in the dance of color and form on canvas.

To learn more about Nikki’s work or to commission her for a private project, please contact her or the galleries that represent her work. “As an artist, I believe that my work is not confined to a single medium. For me, art is a way of interacting with the world around me and reimagining it in unique and inspiring ways. I began my artistic journey as a photographer, which taught me how to truly see the beauty and essence of my subjects. Photography is always my starting point. Later I fell in love with brush work and so as a separate but equally important practice I discovered I could be a 3-dimensional storyteller reinterpreting my captures into a new collection. My art represented by local and international galleries. I live immersed in the beauty of our natural world, fascinated by the interplay of elements and how they shape our perceptions. With my camera as my starting point, I study surfaces and textures, manipulating light to reveal new dimensions of shape and form. I seek out those moments that blur the line between realism and abstraction, offering viewers a fresh perspective on familiar subjects. Through my work, I aim to evoke emotions and connect with the viewers, whether it’s through the energy and joy of an “electric current” or the peaceful serenity of kaleidoscopic ripples. At the heart of my practice is the dance of light and energy, capturing the moment ‘in between’. I work in many mediums but primarily Oil & Acrylic with textural mediums.” – Nikki Baxendale
