Painted by the Wind (2025) Original Oil Painting by Lisa Elley

12x16” original oil on canvas panel, unframed

Painted en plein air at Soberanes Point, Garrapata State Park, Big Sur California

This piece was created on site, surrounded by wind-swept cliffs and the rhythmic pulse of the Pacific. The coastal air moved fast that day, sculpting the landscape into motion, and I let it guide the palette knife.

Earth tones and ocean blues collide with windswept grasses and wild textures, capturing the quiet strength of Soberanes. It’s a portrait of presence, untamed, grounded, and full of breath.

For the collector who knows the coast not as a view, but as a companion. A witness. A force.
