NORTHERN MOTIVE

This is an original oil on canvas painting of a North Atlantic Sea Board landscape in New England, specifically Maine. It is an impressionist work that features blue and grey colors with a focus on the ocean, pines, rocks, and coast. The piece is also a seascape and landscape that showcases the sky, clouds, nature, rocks, and cliffs. The painting is stretched on a wooden frame and is an impressionist etude of the New England coastal line. It was created on a cloudy day with a plain air atmospheric study and finished in the studio. The impasto style is heavy and built with brushes and pallet knives. The edges of the painting are covered with archival white linen tape for a clean, contemporary look, and it is ready to hang without needing a frame. The work is signed on the front and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. The materials used are of master quality, making this piece a high-quality addition to any collection.
