I painted this piece to capture the quiet rhythm of the sea — that moment when sunlight lingers on the water and the world feels still again. The ocean always feels like a return to calm for me, a reminder that even movement can be peaceful. I used soft layers of blues, greys, and warm reflected light to echo the hush of the shoreline after the tide recedes. When I look at this piece, I’m reminded of how the sea both stirs and soothes — constantly changing, yet always the same. It’s a meditation on presence, rhythm, and the peaceful power of nature.
