"Archipelago" is a stunning piece of contemporary art that beautifully captures the serene and dynamic qualities of a seascape through abstract expressionism. The painting's dimensions, 115 x 130 cm (45.28 x 51.18 inches), make it a substantial piece that adds vibrancy and character to any space.

Created using a palette knife, the artist has skillfully applied thick, textured strokes of oil paint to convey the intricate details and dynamic forms of the ocean and coastline. The swirling patterns and vibrant colors depict the sea and sky in a lively dance, evoking the movement of the water and clouds. The rich palette of blues, greens, and purples captures the natural beauty and diversity of the seascape, infusing the painting with energy and life.

The abstract nature of the piece allows viewers to interpret the scene in their own way, inviting them to connect with the artwork on a personal level. The palette knife technique adds depth and dimension, making the sea appear almost three-dimensional and alive.

This painting will be shipped in a sturdy tube due to its large dimensions, to avoid high shipping costs if shipped stretched on a frame. It is more economical to have a frame made at a local framing shop.

First-rate oil colors of the Florentine brand "DI VOLO" applied with spatula were used for the painting, and the pictorial support is a cottono canvas pre-painted for oil painting with Gesso and Glue.
