Colors of the Sea Painting

This work was inspired by my love for the beach and bold sunsets. I wanted to create something that explored the spectrum of color we take for granted every day, without necessarily focusing on the realism of the scene. My belief with painting is that color is the most important factor in creating something that resembles the real world and by exploring color, I hope to shine a light on the subtle beauty it plays in our day to day lives. My hope is that those who see this piece will appreciate not just the subject matter, but the slight color changes that occur all around us.This painting was done with oil because I have found oils offer us the brightest and most vibrant colors that best represent what is really happening in the moment. I am an artist who finds joy in painting with palette knives almost exclusively to generate texture, and as such this piece consists of thick impasto that complements the color choices. As far as technical processes go, the canvas was triple primed with gesso prior to beginning the work, and has not yet been varnished. The painting itself was completed on April 10th, 2019 and can be safely varnished six months after that date (October 10th,2019).
