This evocative seascape by Alison Johnson captures the serene beauty of coastal waters through her masterful oil painting technique. Deep cobalt blues dominate the composition, while touches of warm sand and crisp white suggest distant sailing boats on the horizon.
Johnson's distinctive layering method creates remarkable depth in the sweeping coastline, with bold brushstrokes conveying the movement of tide and current.
