Wonderful technique and mastery of the medium demonstrated here. Incredible use of washes. The three-tierd composition is a real eye pleaser. Traditional Artists Unite!

Many thanks for your great review. Yes, I did the 3 tiered look as an experiment.
Comment from orienne
This is so lovely. I am so captivated by the colors and textures you used here. There is such a wonderful sense of calm and beauty here, such a presence of peace. I swear I can almost hear those waves rolling in and kissing the shoreline. This is so beautiful. orienne

Comment from Paulisa
Nice. I like the coloring that gives the appearance of sunlight reflecting off the water. Great choice of colors. Good depth of field and balance. Water is so hard to paint, but you did an excellent job.
Thanks for sharing

Comment from Carolisa
I think you have used a fantastic color scheme to this seascape scenery - the wave is so well done - unfortunately you have uploaded such a very large version of your painting and that's the reason I couldn't give you more than a for star here - I suggest you edit it - re size it and upload a smaller picture - I am sure it will look much better, just a friendly advise from me to you - kindest regards, Carolisa

Thank you for your advice and comments.

You did a great job on the waves on this one. What was of particular interest to me was the backwash as it retreats off the beach. There are so many tones to represent and you did them all rather well I;d say.

I love how you've added to the blues to make each of the paintings three parts, sky, water and surf, look distinct. This is an extremely stunning, lifelike painting.
