Coastal Cliff and Sea Breezes (2026) Original Acrylic Painting by Amanda Horvath

In this painting, I wanted to capture the feeling of standing on a cliff top as sunlight dances across the landscape looking out to a blue sea. Soft pastel tones flow through the sea and sky, while touches of purple and gold bring warmth and movement to the scene. The horizon blurs gently where the sea meets the sky, creating a dreamy, peaceful atmosphere.

For me, this piece is about the refreshing calm that nature can bring, the rugged landscape, fresh breeze, the sound of the waves, and the sense of space and freedom you feel by the coast. It's a vibrant yet soothing painting that brings a little of that uplifting energy and holiday feeling indoors.
An original Artwork, one of a Kind, this unique painting has been created using high-quality acrylic paints on a deep edged canvas, the sides are painted white.
My creative process begins with direct observation of the location, where I make sketches, notes, and take photographs. Back in the studio, I work intuitively, first building up base layers with a brush before applying successive layers of impasto using a palette knife.
I draw inspiration from both Impressionist optical mixing techniques and traditional methods used by the old masters, such as scumbling and glazing. These layered approaches allow the work to evolve organically until it reaches a natural and resolved conclusion.
For shipping the painting will be packaged flat in a reinforced cardboard box and will arrive ready to hang with a certificate of authenticity.
