i was starting the pump and had to put some water in to prime it, and as i looked into the dam i saw all these shapes - a microcosm of life...algae, larvae, insects, grass, kabungi reeds...it inspired me to create a painting of the intricate life that u see in a small & normally bypassed fragment of our ecosystem - the edge of the dam.. i recreated the image with colours that appealed to me and that equated with water, hence the turquoise...i added a few highlights of black (micro animals, little wrigglers) and red to brighten the other colours...
