This is a hand painted, one of the kind oil painting done and signed by me, Olga Jones.
-This seascape (18x24" or approx 45x61 cm) is done and shipped on stretched canvas.
- All sides are painted. Can be displayed unframed.
- Surfer's dream is an original oil painting of a large breaking wave in blue and turquoise with spectacular foam and dark clouds in the background as seen on the Gulf Coast after a hurricane.
- Add a coastal vibe to your home with this artwork. This is a perfect housewarming gift or a gift for any occasion to an ocean lover.
- I usually start my work with a coat of Gesso primer even on canvasses that are sold primed then proceed to create a traditional underpainting in umber as Old Masters did to determine values of color and composition. I only work with oil paints. Each painting has at least 3-4 thin layers. My artwork has almost no texture.
After the painting is finished and cured for 2-4 weeks, then the protective varnish coat goes on, I usually use Dammar varnish that give it a glossy finish. I believe that Dammar makes oil paint appear more lustrous.
