When the ocean looks as green as it does in the paintings of Pedro Covo, the urge to go swimming in the sea really grasps you in a powerful way. The surface is so clear and crisp, it’s hard not to envy the woman who gets to dive in and splash about to her heart’s content. Covo’s brushstrokes are simple and effective, favouring minimalist compositions instead of flooding his canvas with unnecessary detail.
