Mythic Ancestral Creatures Underwater

I swim in an ocean pool in Sydney, every day of the year...
I also work with an Indigenous Elder who tells stories of ocean
creatures. Many cultures have such ancestral mythic beings ...
As I swim, I can imagine them with me ...Sometimes they are!
Swimming is a meditation. Meditation takes us to other zones ...
Our ancestors came from the sea ... We know this ...
I love to paint works that depict the 'between' worlds of
the liminal...the place of all possibility.
