OCEANUS Watercolours

This was an experiment of putting on a coloured wash and then working on top of that to create a weathered effect to emulate this famous Baroque central statue of the god Oceanus in the Trevi fountain in Rome. Oceanus is the God of the Earth representing the source of all fresh water. Completed in 1762 the impressive work is over 25 metres high and is sculpted in Carara Marble. Hope you like it!
