Ancient Current – Steve Bradbury

Ancient Current is part of Steve Bradbury’s Wild Life collection, inspired by a visit to a turtle sanctuary during his travels in Kenya. This vibrant painting celebrates the beauty of marine wildlife, portraying a graceful sea turtle moving effortlessly with the ocean’s current. A symbol of resilience, wisdom, and harmony with nature, the work captures the peaceful rhythm and timeless spirit of the sea.

Painted in oil on aluminium dibond, the surface allows for strong colour, sharp detail and the signature drips that run through the lower section of the work. The aluminium gives the piece a contemporary edge while keeping it lightweight and durable. It’s a distinctly Japanese scene with a subtle twist — familiar, but not as you’d expect.
