Beneath the Waves

Marcus Ashley Gallery takes pride in the exhibits it curates by talented artists in and around California. Nestled at the heart of Lake Tahoe, the gallery is a reputable space for visitors to explore immersive art. Prepare to have your senses transported to tranquil, unspoiled landscapes through the Steve Barton art collection. The artist takes viewers on a visual treat of coastal habitats, tropical treasures, and peaceful vistas. Barton’s covetable work carries wanderlust vibes, a running theme his fans adore.

Beneath the Waves reveals a tapestry of tropical hues that fill the canvas with Barton’s creative flair and raw perception. Weathered yet quaint beach houses sit against a pier and an idling fishing boat bobbing on pristine waters. Palm trees sway in the gentle breeze, revealing a backdrop that draws you in immediately. In the foreground, the artist gives us a magical view of underwater life. A majestic sea turtle is accompanied by a school of flounders, swimming past thriving corals and seaweed. An octopus lies in sweet repose in a sandy patch that provides a stunning view of marine life in action. Both scenes melt into each other to create a compelling composition.

Barton relies on sweeping brushstrokes and layers of bright paint to translate the energy of the tropical paradise. Beneath the Waves is a masterpiece that deserves a spot on a wall.
