Original artwork description:

Recently I have been overpainting older works and tried out new ways of expressing emotions and feelings. Here I started to play around with oil colors, enjoying the texture of it, the palette knife and was completely absorbed in what it felt like.
"Breaking In" can be seen as just a landscape with waves breaking in, but can also be understood as emotions and feelings breaking in, things can happen in our life and break in... life means constant change, we have to deal with it, it can be stormy, it can be wild, it can drown us, but it can also contain great beauty.

40x40x2 cm on gallery wrapped canvas. Signed on the back. Ready to hang. Lots of texture due to the overpainting and the oil color.
