The effects of the moon on our tidal patterns are well documented but never as beautifully and delicately depicted as here in oil and cold wax by artist Gillian Murphy. We fell head over heels in love with this abstract piece; the artist’s interpretation of a waxing gibbous moon (moving from a semi-circle moon, to a full moon) and the effects this particular moon has on the tide, delightfully interesting and draws you straight in. It is different and delicate and although gentle in colour palette, is wonderfully striking on the wall.
