# Awesome Aquatic Art Sarah Harvey Paints Hauntingly Beautiful Underwater Pieces By Armida Ascano | Published 2010-11-02 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sarah-harvey References: [amusingplanet](http://www.amusingplanet.com/2010/11/beautiful-underwater-paintings-by-sarah.html) & [harveyarts](http://www.harveyarts.com/index.asp) Sarah Harvey is a London-born artist whose astonishingly accurate work is both impeccably done and creatively conceived. The concept for her [underwater series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ariel-swipe) draws from the altered, wonky look of a body in a pool. This concept results in a series of art that is vivid and realistic enough to be a photographic manipulation. Surprisingly, Sarah Harvey does the work herself. Capturing everything from [light reflecting off of the water](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/making-the-invisible-visible) to manipulated body parts, Sarah Harvey proves her skill in this [aquatic series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coral-soaps-collection). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 57% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Realistic Underwater Art:** Artists can explore the trend of creating realistic underwater art to captivate viewers with immersive and visually stunning experiences. - **Photorealistic Manipulation:** Developers can leverage the trend of photorealistic manipulation to create immersive digital experiences that blur the line between reality and art. - **Altered Perception:** Psychologists and researchers can study the trend of altered perception through art to better understand the human brain's interpretation of visual stimuli. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art & Design:** Artists, galleries, and museums can embrace the trend of realistic underwater art to attract art enthusiasts who seek unique and immersive experiences. - **Digital Media:** Digital media companies and developers can harness the trend of photorealistic manipulation to create captivating virtual reality (VR) experiences and interactive artworks. - **Psychology & Neuroscience:** Psychology and neuroscience researchers can utilize the trend of altered perception through art to explore the cognitive processes involved in visual perception. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hand-Painted Watercolor Prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emma-webster.md) - [Human Nature-Themed Art Galleries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sea-im-awake.md) - [Interactive Marine Ecosystem Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marine-ecosystem-sculptures.md) - [Striking Urban Wildlife Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clare-allin.md) - [Whimsical Pool-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/public-pool-exhibition.md) - [Biology-Inspired Porcelain Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shiyuan-xu.md) - [Artistic Rum Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artists-of-the-abyss.md) - [Vibrantly Colorful Dynamic Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kayla-rumpp.md) - [Leftover Househouse Paint Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paint-drop.md)
