Ocean Nocturne
Original Oil by Geoffrey C. Smith
48"W x 36"H
In Ocean Nocturne, Geoffrey C. Smith paints the transition between day and night in bold palette knife strokes, where the last light of sunset dissolves into a deep, brooding sky. The shoreline curves like a whispered secret, edged by whitecaps that seem to glow against the darkness. This palette knife oil painting balances serenity and drama - calm pastels on one side, stormy blues on the other - echoing the tension and beauty found in the sea after dusk. It's a meditative, emotional seascape that invites the viewer to stand at the edge and listen.
