Lone Cypress Sunset

The Lone Cypress on its rock, the surf breaking around the base, a few gulls in the air to the right, Monterey Bay going blue and green all the way to the hills in the distance. One of the most painted and photographed spots on the California coast, and this watercolor version earns its place among them by committing fully to color and not holding back. The palette is vivid and warm, deep purples and burnt oranges in the rock face, bright teals in the churning water, the cypress itself a confident dark silhouette against a yellow-green sky. It's a bold interpretation of a familiar subject and it works because the boldness is backed up by solid composition and brushwork that knows what it's doing. The matte canvas finish keeps all that saturated color honest and grounded. Gallery-stretched on a slim 1.25" pine frame and ready to hang out of the box, it's for anyone who has stood on that path above the 17 Mile Drive and looked at that tree, which is just about everyone who has ever visited this stretch of the California coast.
