Under the water down by the sea

In an Octopus's Garden in the Shade oil and gold laquer on canvas. By George Roberts 2015

A girl with red hair urges her horse backwards in a watery world of seaweed, fish, cephalopods and bubbles.  It's both day and night in this ionic, ironic and damp mermaid's purse. Gee up my little contra-indian! Come on in, the sea is warm and time, tide and buttered eggs wait for no one.
