The ocean is a muse for many water-loving artists.
The challenge, however, is in capturing its movement.
California-based creativeAndreea Berindeidoes just that by rendering the different states of the ocean in realistic acrylic paintings.
But while Berindei excels at painting water, her relationship to the real thing is much more delicate.
Berindei enhances her vivacious ocean depictions by juxtaposing them with skies that are just as alive and ethereal.
As a result, she captures the entire atmosphere of being at the beach.
We all have gifts lying underneath, waiting to be discovered and developed, the artist adds.
Its up to us.
When you choose to discover your gifts, you are in a unique place.
