Purchasing this artwork means more than acquiring art – it also means contributing to the protection of our oceans: A part of the proceeds from Golden Fins will be donated to the Paul Watson Foundation, an organization that has tirelessly defended marine life and whales for decades.
There are moments that carve themselves into your soul forever – Golden Fins is the embodiment of such a moment.
It was on Oʻahu, one of those afternoons when the sea seemed to breathe heavily and calmly at once. I sat barefoot in the sand, my feet sunk into the warmth of the earth, eyes resting on the horizon – and suddenly, they appeared: whales. Immense, alive, free. With every breath, they broke the surface, as if the ocean itself was speaking.
A year later, I found myself in the water – not alone, but surrounded by an entire whale family. I will never forget the moment one of them glided right past me. No sound, only water, light, and breath. Time stood still. That encounter changed me – and it has never let me go.
Golden Fins is my attempt to capture that deep stillness. The whale moves through a flowing composition of deep blue, radiant emerald, and shimmering gold. The golden elements tell a story of connection – between being, ocean, and movement. They reflect something sacred: the silence from which all life begins.
Whales are more than majestic creatures. They are memory. They are power. They are history carried forward through movement. In their presence lies a language without words – one that speaks in stillness, grace, and depth.
But they are also a warning. Even in 2025, whales are still hunted – brutally, senselessly, destructively. Golden Fins is not only a tribute, but also a call to awareness. A reminder of what we stand to lose if we keep looking away – and what we might preserve if we choose to listen.

Printing Methods:
ChromaLuxe Fine Art Print
ChromaLuxe Fine Art Prints are among the most exclusive printing techniques in contemporary art. Through a complex sublimation process, the artwork is infused directly into specially coated aluminum panels. The result is extraordinary luminosity – colors appear vibrant, details remain razor-sharp, and the surface reveals a depth far beyond traditional prints. Beyond their visual brilliance, ChromaLuxe prints are highly durable: scratch-resistant, UV-stable, and capable of preserving their radiance for decades. Each artwork is delivered fully framed – ready to be displayed immediately.
Lenticular Edition
The Lenticular Edition brings art to life. Using a fine multi-dimensional lens structure, the artwork creates a fascinating depth effect that shifts with every movement of the viewer. The result is dynamic and immersive – colors seem to pulsate, forms gain dimension, and the artwork feels alive, as if it were breathing. This method intensifies the emotional impact of the piece – transforming it into an experience rather than just an image. Every Lenticular Edition is crafted to the highest quality standards and delivered fully framed, allowing it to unfold its full effect the moment it enters a space.
This artwork is created for collectors, galleries, interior designers, hotels, and private spaces that seek more than decoration – a piece that carries presence, meaning, and emotional resonance.
Emotional Depth: Inspired by a real encounter with whales, captured in a work of timeless beauty.
Support for Ocean Protection: A part of the proceeds supports the Paul Watson Foundation.
Exclusivity: Limited collector’s editions in various sizes, each a unique original.

Ocean Arts Collection – A Deeper Invitation
The Ocean Arts Collection is more than art – it is a commitment. Each work in this series is born from my deep connection to the sea, from encounters that shaped me, and from the urgent need to protect what is fragile and vital.
These works are created for those who wish to fill spaces not only with beauty, but with soul. For collectors who see art not as possession, but as dialogue. For hotels and interiors that want to offer their guests more than aesthetics – atmosphere, meaning, emotion.
