Summer Sunset (2025)Oil painting by Ira Whittaker

This oil painting is inspired by my personal memory of summer by the sea — a quiet moment of rest, warmth, and freedom as the sun slowly sets over the horizon.
The composition captures the meeting of water, rock, and light. Gentle waves roll over dark coastal stones in the foreground, reflecting the golden glow of the evening sky. In the distance, dramatic sea cliffs and a natural stone arch rise from the calm water, creating a sense of timelessness and serenity. The sunset fills the scene with soft blues, warm oranges, and glowing reflections that shimmer across the sea’s surface.
This artwork is about slowing down, breathing deeply, and holding onto the feeling of a perfect summer evening by the ocean — peaceful, nostalgic, and full of light.
Painted in oil with expressive brushstrokes and layered textures, this piece brings depth, movement, and emotion to any interior. It is ideal for lovers of seascapes, coastal memories, and tranquil, atmospheric art.
Enjoy my art.
