Cape Kiwanda Surf

This piece originated with some rough gouache studies painted on location in Pacific City, Oregon, and then a small pastel study done back in the studio before tackling this larger oil. There are such beautiful patterns in ocean waves, and pairing that subject with rocks (a subject I always love to paint!) made for a fun challenge in the studio! It's a slight change in subject matter for me, but I hope to paint more ocean scenes!
