8” X 8” X 1.5” Oil and cold wax on cradled wood panel
This captivating 8 X 8 inch painting, created with a palette knife, exudes a dreamlike quality with its rich textures and fluid movement. The composition features an abstract yet recognizable coastal scene, where sailboats rest along a shimmering body of water. The color palette is a harmonious blend of soft blues, warm golds, and earthy greens, evoking the tranquil glow of sunrise or sunset reflecting on the water’s surface.
The sky is filled with expressive, sweeping strokes, creating a sense of depth and atmospheric movement. The cold wax medium adds a velvety softness to the textures, allowing light and shadow to interact in a mesmerizing way. Hints of a grid pattern subtly emerge in the upper right corner, adding an unexpected element of structure and contrast. The reflections in the water are beautifully fragmented, reinforcing the painting’s ethereal and impressionistic feel.
