Port d`Aval, Rough Sea — Fine Art

Port d Avel, Rough Sea shows a coastline beaten by waves under a lively sky. Broad strokes build the water and the shore with fast marks. The paint carries the motion of the sea and the wind that moves across it. Claude Monet worked outdoors to catch that kind of moving light.

This fine art print uses a frame in white, wood, dark wood or black. The frame gives the picture a clear edge on the wall and holds the busy marks in place. The matte paper keeps the paint tones steady and stops a shine from spreading over the waves.

Hang it on a hallway wall near the front door. From the bench you see the full sweep of water and sky. Step closer and the thick painted marks come into view one by one.
