Living on the coast of the NYC bay, I am so very blessed to be able to gaze out at the water every day. I find the horizon line where the water meets the sky to be instantly calming, centering and at the same time powerful and energizing. Every day is different on the water. From misty gray fog that blends the earth into the sky, to spectacular summer sunsets in pink and tangerine, to earthy blues with just a hint of daylight coming through.
I’ve painted a number of these small seascapes on linen and canvas panels over the past two years. With the last of them sold, I’ll be adding several more this year inspired by my views here on the New Jersey coast (and perhaps a few other locations—we’ll see).
Here are the first three of this series reboot, inspired by the warm, gauzy late afternoon colors at the end of autumn.
