Wave I
From the collection of Athens School of Fine Arts
Wave I is a work by Kari Faleide, held at Athens School of Fine Arts.
This print shows a wild, crashing wave hitting rocky cliffs. The water is thick with swirling lines, almost like ink splashes, while the cliffs are jagged and white-capped. The sky above is pale, almost faded, with a small puff of cloud near the top. The wave looks like it’s exploding against the rocks, with sharp contrasts between dark and light. The artist used a mix of heavy black lines and lighter washes to make it feel rough and powerful. If you like this style, check out Kari Faleide.
