Water Surface Ocean Oil Painting

The original has sold, prints are available here

I love how the foam pulls away on the water surface, it is so fleeting and beautiful as it forms, rises and bubbles away. This feeling, after a big wave has broken when the foam is separating and the water is showing it’s colors beneath is just breathtaking to me. 

This scene is based off a day walking on the sea in Southern California when the waves were big and alive and the afternoon sun was glowing through the water... something I love to have in my home, alive and fresh.

There was a space in my home with beautiful sage green walls that I painted this for - to hang while it was waiting for a buyer and before the paint had even dried I sold it to a new collector who absolutely adores it.

A lot of emotion poured out of me painting this one. It is amazing how even when experiencing a full body emotion, the trance of painting continues to flow out of me. It had been awhile since I had the experience painting and it was amazingly satisfying and fulfilling to go through the creative process on this painting.

The painting oil paint on canvas and is 60 inches wide (5 ft) by 36 inches tall (3 ft)
