Small Seascapes (Mendocino - the cliff beach) - SOLD


It was very interesting to paint this one. The value of the sea water, the beach and the cliff were very close, I used the local color to separate them; moving the rock around on the canvas was fun for the composition; the size and edge was the tool to create the space; the brushwork helped to express the different texture... I think this is the beauty of the oil painting, and this is why I love the oil painting.
Please email me if you are interested to purchase this small beauty.

Wonderful! Nice feeling... It looks like wild coast at QUIBERON in France.

Olivia, thanks for the comment, I never been France, but I will be very happy to visit that beautiful country someday.

Love this painting, I feel the sea breeze and hear the sound of the waves washing to the shore.

Thanks Ran and Dean, it was interesting to do all those small paintings! I have more opportunity to exploring more topics than I have been.
