Two Worlds in One

Above and Below

This style of painting above and below the ocean became popular back in the early 80s when artist David Miller started showing his artwork in Hawaii. These paintings show two worlds separated by only the surface of the ocean. An underwater world where colorful tropical fish, dolphins, and whales swim above a maze of coral gardens. An above world of sunsets, full moons, and waterfalls where the surface of the ocean reaches up with its waves touching the sky for a moment then retreating in a never-ending dance.
