Australian artist Natalie Mecham explores the ocean’s dual nature—from the peaceful tonality of the horizon to the kinetic energy of a breaking wave.

Driven by her global travels, Natalie’s process bridges photography and digital innovation. She uses AI tools to refine her compositions before translating them into expressive oil paintings.

By combining digital preparation with traditional impasto brushwork, she creates a physical, textured depth that captures the raw power and movement of the water.
