Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
The original of this is a tiny 6 x 4 inch oil painting.
This is probably my favourite piece yet. I adore the sea, coming from a long line of fishermen, and I have deep feelings when standing on the shore or a ship that I do not have anywhere else. The sound, the smell that pervades your clothing and hair, the soft spray touching your very soul. To be at one with the ocean is to be one with the very essence of life.
My purpose in this painting was to try and capture the lightness of my heart when out there. To allow you to feel the spray, to smell the salty water.... to feel the wind on your face without leaving your home......... To take you on a voyage through my imagination

So few strokes that say so very much. Just beautiful, Abby. I share your feelings about the ocean. I have lived by the sea my entire life and never tire of my visits there. Something very special about walking alone along a seclude sandy beach, hearing the rush of the waves. the chatter of the gulls overhead, and gazing out at the endless and timeless ocean view. Like a tonic for one's soul.

I just love your translation of the water in this one - so powerful. And the head-on view of that fishing boat resolutely plowing its way forward is inspiring. Such spirit!

This is very powerful, Abbie - I love the freedom and strength of the brush strokes. It's almost an abstract, too, but there's no mistaking the sailboat with the wavers crashing around it. Excellent work.

Abbie... this is truly exceptional. It reminds me of the more mature pieces by J. Turner who made you feel like you were in the ship during the storm. What a incredible piece! :-) Maggie

Very nice and lovely style that depicts the raging sea ! It's good that the boat is just slightly off centre. In photograpy we use the rule of thirds as the strong focal points in compositions, maybe you have heard of this ?

I love the texture. The vision, the hard work put into this. Beautiful!
