cat 12
A lone surfer paddling out at sunset, seen from behind and above, the water around him catching the last of the light.
The figure sits small and low, slightly left of centre, with the whole upper half given to open water and sky. The horizon is high and the picture is almost entirely sea.
Amber, rose and lilac across the water where the sun lies on it, against teal and indigo in the troughs. The figure is a dark silhouette carrying no colour of its own.
The water is laid in broad soft planes worked wet-into-wet with blended edges — much more modelled than the plein-air panels. The figure is four or five strokes and no more.
Oil, photographed as a page of a portfolio book rather than as the object itself.
No signature visible within the painted area.
