Original Palette Knife Oil Painting by Geoffrey Smith
96"W x 72"H
 
A vast horizon stretches across Paradise Found, where turquoise shallows meet the soft gold of a sunlit shore. Using a palette knife, Geoffrey C. Smith layers color and texture to evoke the rhythm of wind and water—the shimmer of surf, the weightless drift of clouds, the quiet stillness that defines the edge of the sea.
 
Light plays across the surface like memory, dissolving detail into sensation. The soft pastel tones and broad, impressionistic strokes recall the serenity of unspoiled coastlines, inviting viewers to pause, breathe, and look outward.
 
More than a seascape, Paradise Found is an homage to peace—a meditation on simplicity, space, and the enduring calm of the natural world.
