The Kraken Sleeps

Description

This piece was a part of an exhibition I held in Horsham, January 2008.


All the pieces were based on seafaring lore and legends and I was particularly interested in the Kraken. I also looked at the ancient mythology of mermaids, Plato's Atlantis and the superstitions of sailors.


The Kraken Sleeps was a stand alone piece, painted in a slightly different style to the other squid paintings. I think it's slightly more haunting and restful than the others.
