Title: Symphonic Gray Wave
Artist: Ed Penniman Media: Oil |

This original large oil painting, created in 2023, captures the essence of the California coastline with a masterful impressionist touch. The piece artfully depicts a dramatic wave crashing into a cliff under an overcast sky, evoking the briny atmosphere and the roar of the surf. Skillfully painted with warm and cool tones, the artwork showcases Ed Penniman's expertise in brushwork, palette knife techniques, and studio methods like scumbling and glazing, adding depth and drama to the scene.
