:: Caerulea :: (Latin) 

Dissimilation of *caeluleus, derived from ("sky, heaven")

1. Caerulea of or pertaining to the sea.  
2. Caerulea of or pertaining to the sky. 
3. Caerulea of or pertaining to rivers or sea and river deities. 
4. Caerulea dark coloured, sable, black.

Symbolic and symbiotic granular flow between colour and water. An echo of the expressive and emotive paradox of the artist and observer. The sinuous curves of nature distilled into colour hues that evoke fantasies and emotions. Inspired by the organic magic of life in all of its biodiversity, Art Nouveau, and the unity of art, life, and nature.
