Not really sure why I love doing these underwater babes so much…
… I’ve always adored Pre-Raphaelite art…
… and their adoration of the Ophelia story produced many gorgeous paintings…
… the romanticism of watery death, plus, just the power of watery places, the beauty that accompanies the deadly potential of slow, deep rivers…
… has held me in thrall since childhood, since long before I discovered Ophelia art…
… one of my favourite sci-fi authors from decades ago is J G Ballard…
… he, too, among other themes, was fascinated by water, and even wrote a story about someone just laying at the bottom of their swimming pool, long after they should have drowned, just breathing the calmness of the water…
… that’s what these images are about…
… not drowning, but arriving, whether as a dreamer, or somehow miraculously, in this safe, underwater reality, where you feel, finally, safe.
