Beneath the Weathered Tide

Beneath the Weathered Tide by Alanah Jarvis, is a textured abstract painting that feels like movement seen through deep green water. Layers of emerald, teal, soft white, muted blush and earthy gold create the feeling of an underwater current shifting across a rustic, weathered surface. There is a quiet happiness in the motion of this piece, like light finding its way beneath the tide and reminding us that beauty often lives below the surface.

For a more refined presentation, this piece pairs beautifully with the gallery’s Priority Framing option. A considered frame adds structure to the raw, weathered texture of the work, giving it a finished presence while still allowing the natural movement and depth of the painting to remain the focus. It’s a simple way to elevate the piece, making it feel at home in both modern and rustic spaces.

This canvas is placed on Sustainable Canvas, made from 100% recycled plastic bottles to keep this plastic out of the environment or landfill. The canvas resists mould & won't sag on stretcher bars over time as it doesn’t expand and contract like other fibre canvases. Its ready to be passed down for generations.

Alanah Jarvis is an Australian artist whose Abstract Weathered Series explores the raw beauty of nature shaped by time. Her richly textured paintings are inspired by the surfaces of the earth and landscapes shaped by wind and water. Through layering and erosion-like techniques, Alanah captures the quiet power of weathered materials, transforming natural imperfections into striking visual stories. These works bring depth, character and a grounded, organic presence into the home.

Each piece reflects a fascination with the marks time leaves behind, the way colour fades, textures shift and surfaces tell silent stories. With earthy palettes and tactile surfaces, Alanah’s paintings create a sense of place, something enduring, elemental and beautifully imperfect. Her art complements modern spaces with natural warmth, drawing people in to look closer, feel more and connect to the world around them.

Alongside this body of work, Alanah also paints her Realistic Ocean Series. Seascapes that capture the expansive light and movement of the coastline. These oil paintings reflect her love of the ocean’s shifting moods and timeless beauty, bringing a sense of space, breath and natural energy into any setting.
