This painting is a semi-abstracted coastal landscape inspired by the moody skies and atmospheric seascapes along the Pacific Northwest, as I live near Vancouver, BC and am constantly inspired by Nature. This piece is layered with a variety of brushstrokes and markings, tone on tone with minimal use of colour, for a muted, neutral appeal to suit many decor styles. It's elegant, organic and oceanic, allowing the viewer to meditate on what we can know about Nature and what will always be veiled to our perception. The heavy cloud cover nods to this concept, that Nature is awe-inspiring, with a grandeur we, as humans, can only try to grasp and understand. This piece is painted in acrylic, with layers of high-gloss varnish to protect and seal it. The sides are painted in a coordinating gray tone. It is signed and dated on the back. Gallery stretch canvas, 1.5 inch depth. Wired and ready to hang.
