About this work

This painting shows a rough, rocky coastline with crashing waves. The sky is heavy with clouds, and the water churns in deep blues and whites. Two seagulls hover near the cliffs, and the rocks look jagged and uneven. The artist focused on the raw power of the sea and cliffs, using thick brushstrokes to show texture. The colors feel stormy but also calm in their own way. If you like this style, look up impasto to see how artists use paint thickness for drama.
