This acrylic and gesso painting on linen canvas captures a serene, abstract view of figures on the bayside of Bald Head Island, gazing across the water toward the mainland. Soft blues and grays evoke the calm openness of the bay, while warm color accents bring life to the figures and shoreline. Loose brushstrokes and textured layers create depth and movement, suggesting shifting light and the quiet energy of the scene. The simplified figures blend into the landscape, emphasizing their connection to the environment. This piece explores stillness, distance, and the beauty of the horizon—a moment where land, water, and sky come together in harmony.
