A Morning is a 1887 by Elbridge Kingsley, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a dark, stormy sea with a small boat in the middle. Waves crash hard around it. Below, jagged rocks stick up from the water. The sky is heavy and gray, with just a sliver of light breaking through. The artist used dark and light colors to make the scene feel dramatic. The thick paint gives the waves texture, like you could almost feel the water’s roughness. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
