The ocean is in a peaceful mood. The ebbing tide laps lazily at the sandy shore. A delicate cloud touched with the warm light of late afternoon drifts over the quiet sea.
It was important to me to capture the sense of air in this painting. I felt it could best be done by including the open sky. Just as every moment doesn't need to be filled with action or noise, ever inch of a painting does not need objects. It needs light and air.
