Fire in the Sea

$300.00

Fire in the Sea — My work explores the meeting place between emotion, memory, and the natural world. In Fire in the Sea, I was drawn to the tension between opposing forces — heat and water, turbulence and calm, destruction and renewal. Through layered color, scraped texture, and expressive gesture, I wanted to create a painting that feels elemental rather than literal.

The warm yellows, oranges, and rust tones suggest fire, light, and transformation, while the deep blues and turquoise evoke water, depth, and movement. I use acrylic and mixed media because the process allows me to build, obscure, scrape back, and reveal what lies beneath. That act of uncovering is central to my work.

Rather than describe a specific place, I hope the painting invites viewers into a felt experience — a moment where energy, weather, and emotion collide, and something luminous begins to emerge.

Fire in the Sea

Fire in the Sea Fire in the Sea, 24 x 18 is a layered abstract painting by Janice Savage that explores the tension between heat and water, intensity and calm. Warm passages of yellow, orange, rust, and soft green move across the upper surface, while deep blue and turquoise forms anchor the lower half like waves, rocks, or shifting tide. Scraped textures, veiled color, and expressive marks create a sense of weather, erosion, and renewal. The painting suggests elemental forces meeting — fire held inside water, light breaking through turbulence, and energy transformed into motion.
