One diagonal wave does the whole work here. A thick ridge of cream and pale-blue foam sweeps in from the upper right and rolls toward the lower left of the canvas, with deep cobalt and steel-blue water churning beneath it. Tiny pale spray droplets scatter across both fields, the way salt actually behaves a second after a swell breaks.
The handling is almost entirely palette-knife. The foam sits in heavy ridges that read like sculpted plaster from a few feet back; the darker water is laid in flatter, cooler horizontal pulls; the spray is flicked on as the last pass. Up close the surface is genuinely worked — you can see where the knife dragged, where the paint piled, where the underlayer shows through.
The palette is tight and oceanic: deep cobalt and inked navy for the water, cream and pale turquoise for the foam, a single softer note of warm pearl where the light hits the highest crest. Nothing is added for decoration; the picture trusts the diagonal motion and the texture to do the work.
It belongs in spaces with a quiet, watery register — a bedroom above a low headboard, a bathroom finished in linen and pale stone, a spa or wellness suite, a long hallway in a coastal-leaning hotel. Pair it with bleached wood, soft white textiles and brushed nickel; a directional light from above will lift the foam ridge into relief and let the canvas hold its slow, salted weight.
This piece is offered as modern abstract wall art, painted to order on stretched canvas.

One diagonal wave does the whole work here. A thick ridge of cream and pale-blue foam sweeps in from the upper right and rolls toward the lower left of the canvas, with deep cobalt and steel-blue water churning beneath it.
Visual cues include sea, texture, and water. The palette is anchored by blue, cream, and navy.
Best suited for a bathroom, bedroom, and hallway. Works well in boutique hotel and hotel. Pairs naturally with atmospheric and impasto interiors.
Color-wise, the piece works with blue, cream, navy, and white. The overall temperature is cool, settling the room into a calm and considered mood.
The painter works in oil on stretched canvas, with no division of labour between sketch and finish. Layers of oil build up over the underpainting, so the surface carries visible weight and the brushwork stays legible.
The atmospheric character runs through the underpainting, while the impasto feel emerges in the surface passes. For Storm Wave II, drying and varnishing follow the traditional oil-painting cycle so the finished surface holds without yellowing.
Hang the centre 145-155 cm above the floor; that height puts the work at standing eye level. In a bathroom, Storm Wave II reads best on the wall you look at first when entering.
Available sizes: large. Pick the size to the wall, not the wall to the size. Step back to roughly twice the canvas height to take Storm Wave II in — that is the distance the painter worked at.
