Artwork Description

Beachside - The Sunlit Haven is my interpretation of those magical coastal moments when the landscape seems to glow from within. I wanted this work to feel expansive and free, with the sweeping turquoise waters stretching toward the horizon and the golden shoreline bathed in warm sunlight. The contrast between the luminous sands and the cool, tranquil sea creates a beautiful sense of calm, while the soft, atmospheric sky above brings a quiet stillness to the scene.

Through loose brushwork and intuitive mark-making, I allowed the painting to capture not only the beauty of the coastline, but also the emotion of being there  reflecting the warmth of the sun, the salty air, and the peaceful rhythm of the ocean. The earthy browns and ochres grounding the composition balance against the vibrant aqua tones, giving Beachside - The Sunlit Haven a feeling of both peacefulness and energy, like a treasured memory of an endless summer day by the sea.

The canvas is an original piece and comes with d rings and wire ready to hang. The piece is UNFRAMED unless framing option is chosen. Sides are are painted in a crisp white to set off the artwork. The work is created in acrylic paint. All work has been sealed and varnished for protection

Artist Bio

Carolyne Jane
THE BLOCK ARTIST - 2024 and 2025

I was absolutely thrilled that two of my works were again selected to feature in this year’s series of THE BLOCK in Daylesford 2025 and last year in THE BLOCK Phillip Island 2024! It is an incredible honour to be part of such a well-loved show, and I can’t begin to express how exciting it was to see my art displayed every night during contestant interviews.

I am an abstract artist and I find incredible inspiration from the rocks and sea around Phillip Island. I am very drawn to the changing colours of the sea and the beautiful colours of the red rocks and natural diversity of the island which often tend to end up being the main subjects for my art. I have a real passion for colour and enjoy experimenting with the use of different colour combinations to create my work.

My works are totally intuitive and I pour all my energy, passion and emotion into each unique piece I create. My works are mainly acrylic with some mixed media of charcoal and pastel and I adore painting on big canvases.

My artistic Journey originally saw me working with oils creating contemporary seascapes but as my art evolved I found myself wanting to really let go and create from within. I love being able to create from something as simple as a mark on paper or a thought and let the canvas tell me what it wants.

Lately I’ve found myself going a bit wild with my brushstrokes as the crazy madness of creating takes over. My passion is colour and I love experimenting with different colour palettes which keeps my works interesting and exciting. I truely am on a journey of exploration with my work.
