Painted plein air on the Costa Brava, Spain, in 2026, this painting captures the endless conversation between sea and stone.
I was fascinated by the way the Mediterranean waves broke against the pale coastal rocks, creating a constant play of light, movement, and reflection. Using expressive, textured brushstrokes, I focused less on precise detail and more on the energy of the moment—the rhythm of the surf, the cool shadows within the rocks, and the luminous turquoise water surrounding them.
The thick layers of oil paint emphasize the physical presence of both rock and sea, inviting the viewer to almost feel the salt air and hear the waves rolling onto the shore.
This painting is a celebration of the Mediterranean coast, where even the quietest moments are filled with movement and light.
