Lazy Hazy Summer

"Lazy Hazy Summer" by Geoff Pike. I love the churning foam of the ocean on stormy days and nights and the moonlight capturing the reflective qualities of the water. This piece captures the ever changing hues found throughout the Australian costal landscape.
Beautiful visible individual brushstrokes providing added texture. This artwork is completed with a palette knife using professional oil paint. One of a kind original painting.

My hope is that this painting brings a sense of peace and harmony to the home where it lives, and that it helps the people who live there feel that part of nature is right there in the room with them.

Thank you for taking the time to check out my work. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about this piece or wish to discuss framing options.

Born in 1948 and raised in New Zealand my interest in art began when I left school and started work in a frame shop. I later opened a small gallery and through that met my mentor and friend Michael Blow, a professional artist. I have no formal training and am primarily self taught. I am an artist member of the HB art gallery. I moved to Perth Australia in 2011 then on to Melbourne in 2019. Now a full time artist I have time to pursue my lifelong ambition to create affordable art. I am inspired by the vibrant colours of the Australian landscape, most of my work involves water and the visual drama of the constantly changing elements against the costal landscape.The essence of my work is not the water but the mystery behind the depiction of light, and the depth of colour.
