Pacific Grandeur 8 × 10 | Original Alla Prima Oil on Canvas
Big Sur has always held a special place in my family’s heart. My parents lived in Carmel for decades, and the rugged beauty of California’s central coast became a meaningful part of their lives—and mine.
This 8 × 10 alla prima oil painting captures the dramatic meeting of land and sea along the Big Sur coastline. Rocky outcroppings, crashing surf, distant hills, and expansive blue water come together to convey the wild, pristine character of this remarkable landscape.
Rather than attempting to capture every detail, I wanted to capture the feeling of Big Sur—the vastness, the movement, and the timeless beauty of the coast.
An original oil painting on canvas, created in my contemporary alla prima style.
