I Am Here, Figurative Oil Painting 24 x 24 woman at the sea, female figure ocean waves
























I Am Here
Oil on canvas, 24 x 24 in. $400

I liked the pose of this figure and eventually arrived at the idea of painting a stormy sky and ocean behind her. It's something I'd do if standing at the edge of the sea on a windy day. It's exhilarating to feel the force of the wind on one's body, so long as there's a sense of safety. Woman, wind and water.

Marie, this is a powerful picture! Makes me think of a woman realizing her full potential. Owning her power. I imagine you won't have this painting for long.
