Original artwork description:

Standing upon the shore,
waves break over the rocks.
Roaring sound engulfs me.
water splashes across my face.

The sights and sounds of the waves crashing washes over me, bringing me peace and hope. I long to capture that moment, that emotion, through painting.

"Sailor's Delight" is a large painting with amazing texture that adds striking beauty and a sense of natural serenity to your space.

This may be my favorite new technique! The texture is applied to the canvas with a palette knife, and allowed to dry. Then, I add color by rubbing acrylic inks and fluid paints into the texture. I allow it to sink in, and the texture to show. It creates such a wonderful clarity and depth to the painting.

Colors: aqua, blue, turquoise, purple, red, soft yellow, white, black
Sides are painted black. Artwork is finished with UV resistant satin varnish, signed or initialed on front, labelled with title, date, and artist signature on back.

Shipping Notes:
United States: Painting is stretched and hanging hardware is included.
International: Small paintings are shipped stretched. Large canvas paintings are shipped unstretched and rolled in a tube. This is the safest way to ship a painting, and will help protect your investment. I recommend taking the artwork to a professional framer to have it restretched.

Materials used:

Acrylic, archival canvas, varnish
