Artwork Description

This monochrome seascape focuses on the structure and movement of a breaking wave. By working in black and white, the emphasis is place on contrast, light and form.

The piece was built in layered pastel to create depth within the water and to capture the moment just before the wave collapses into white water.

Professionally framed and ready to hang.
