ABOUT THE PAINTING

WHAT INSPIRED ME

My original pop art painting of The Waterboys’ ‘This Is The Sea’ album cover captures the essence of the iconic black-and-white design while adding a modern twist. Painted in monochromatic greys, blacks, and whites, this artwork maintains the original atmosphere of the album while infusing it with a pop art feel.

Rather than altering the timeless design, I kept the focus on its simplicity, recreating Mike Scott’s figure in gentle shades of grey to match the black and white tones of the cover. The painting is set on a square canvas, perfectly reflecting the shape of the LP/CD, maintaining a minimalist approach to honor the album’s visual legacy.
