I am always looking for those unexpected color relationships that make a painting come alive. Here, the cool aqua of the water and sky meet the warmth of the coastline in layers of ochre, rust, orange and olive.
I was drawn to the contrast between the expansive, quieter blues and the more energetic colors of the land. I love how the shapes begin to break apart and come together, creating a landscape that is as much about color and brushwork as it is about a place.
It's my interpretation of the California coast, seen through the colors that caught my eye.
