Cresting Surge

A3 size Textured Oil on Canvas

This artwork captures a heart-pounding moment of ocean power — the majestic curl of a massive wave right before it breaks over the reef.

This piece combines rich, layered oil paints with sculpted impasto texture to build the translucent, sapphire-blue core of a barrel wave, crowned with a spray of sea foam.

The vivid cerulean and cobalt tones of the swell contrast with the dark, heavy impasto of the foreground rocks, evoking a sense of raw elemental strength, vitality, and coastal beauty.

A balance of fluid, sweeping motion and heavy, tactile rock form, this piece invites the viewer to pause, feel the pull of the tide, and marvel at the ocean's crest.

All artworks feature the artist's signature on the front and frame included.
