Breakers is a compact oil study measuring 2 by 3 inches, matted to 3 by 4 inches. In this piece, I explore a layered interplay of blue tones—deep, shadowed hues at the top gradually shift into softer, pale blues and whites below. The texture is an important element here, with thick, deliberate brushstrokes creating a wave-like movement that recalls the restless surf on Maui at night. Framed with a white mat and a black border, the work invites a close look into the energy found in nature’s quieter, darker moments. This painting reflects the steady rhythm and depth I find in the ocean after dark, where form and motion emerge from shadows.
