This was taken this morning against the sun and so it causes these reflections and colours. For a while I thought the purple reflections was some digital mistake but today I really stared at the sparkles and I saw it with the naked eye. This is the amazing thing about shooting the water, looking for new things. I have to apply the knowledge that my mentor Nel Erasmus taught me. She is an abstract artist and refuses to acknowledge the content of my work if it does not abide by her “laws” of the abstract…. even when it is the most simple image on white. So I have had to learn to really look hard, see everything that is there. Many autistic people do not have that choice. They see everything and the world becomes a bit of an onslaught on their senses. I feel a bit like that when I start working. It takes me about an hour every time I go to the water, sometimes longer. It also feels meditative. On the way home I am completely relaxed.
