Big Sur Chroma

$1,200.00

18 × 24 in. | Oil on Canvas | (0.5 in. deep profile)

Rich, sculptural impasto and expressive mark-making capture the raw, untamed spirit of the Big Sur coast. Thickly layered oil paint builds the rugged, weathered faces of towering granite cliffs, set against the surging momentum of luminous turquoise swells and crashing whitewash. Earthy mineral ochres and vibrant sea tones play across the canvas, catching shifting light throughout the day to bring the three-dimensional energy, vivid color, and tactile salt-air atmosphere of Highway 1 directly into your space.
