Tide & Innocence - Original Oil Painting

This small oil painting depicts a child in the surf, observed in a moment of movement between water and shore. I was drawn to the shifting rhythm of the waves and the interaction of figure, light, and sea in an ever-changing coastal environment.

The painting focuses on gesture, atmosphere, and the fleeting nature of a brief coastal moment, with loose brushwork that reflects the motion of water and the immediacy of the scene.
