Sunlit Surf

Oil on canvas

I stood where the surf hammers the rocks and the sun sits low right behind the break. When the light comes through the spray like that, the foam almost glows from the inside. This was a fast, loud painting. I wanted you to feel the crash and the heat of that backlight at the same time.
