Tempest

2018

Oil on canvas

A landscape painting of a restless sea done in shades of white, blue, and grays. The water is frothing on the bottom half with waves off to the side. A blue abstract figure is seen rising out of the water with pieces of it scattered around as if flying away. In the distance is a white water cyclone with ominous gray cloudlike mirages creeping in from the horizon on the top corner. Gentler whitecap waves are seen in the distance.
