"Pounding Wave"

"The Pacific Ocean on the Northwest coast is beautiful but treacherous. On grey windy days such as this, the 'pounding waves' beat against unyielding offshore rock formations in a spectacular display"


ARTIST COMMENT
The simplicity of this composition makes it one of my favorite paintings, and it is one of the most popular of my seascape prints.  I emphasized the brilliance of the translucent waves by making the rock and sky dark with just a hint of sunlight .  Even the deep water is intensified by the brighter blue-white of the floating foam.  The Oregon coast, as usual, was my inspiration for this small oil on stretched canvas. The offshore volcanic rocks meet the head-on assault of the tumbling breakers with an unyielding strength.  That metaphor is the embodiment of my life philosophy.
