Original artwork description:

Contemporary Impressionism

View across the Mediterranean sea on a still summers day! Painted in an expressive impressionistic style with visible, energetic brushstrokes, this work captures the luminous quality of coastal light as it dances across the water's surface. The sea transitions from deep sapphire blue in the distance to brilliant turquoise in the shallows, each hue applied with immediacy and confidence. The warm, weathered rocks anchor the composition, their golden and ochre tones glowing against the cool waters.
This painting embodies the raw essence of the natural world—a solitary tree thriving in a harsh yet beautiful environment, shaped by wind and time into something uniquely magnificent. The piece invites the viewer to feel the warmth of the sun, hear the gentle lapping of waves against stone, and breathe in the salt air of this tranquil coastal haven.
Chunky canvas, painted around the edges to provide a contemporary unframed statement piece. Signed on the front, varnished and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
