Tide Beneath a Burning Sky

A richly textured coastal landscape unfolds beneath a dramatic sunset, with layered coral and ochre clouds glowing above dark, distant hills. Blue water occupies the foreground, where foaming surf curls around angular black rocks and a small pink starfish rests near the lower edge. Thick, visibly worked paint gives the waves and clouds a tactile energy, while the broad horizontal composition balances the fiery sky against the cool, turbulent sea.
