About this work

This painting shows a calm ocean under a soft sky. The water has gentle waves, painted in blues and whites, while the horizon line is low, with a small, dark landmass in the distance. The clouds above are light and fluffy, blending into the pale sky. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, making the scene feel fresh and natural. The colors stay cool, with no warm tones breaking up the blue and gray tones. Look up impasto next to see how thick paint can change a painting’s texture.
