Dimensions  ·  61 × 40 cm (24 × 16 in)

An island rises from calm water, its shape dark against a glow that might be dawn or dusk. The kind of place you see from a boat long before you reach it. A mark on the horizon that slowly becomes solid.

Islands have always held a particular pull. A place that is its own world, set apart by water, where the rules of the mainland loosen. We imagine ourselves there, quieter, simpler, a little more free.

This is an original oil painting on wood panel, in deep blues, with a depth and stillness that photographs only begin to carry. It brings a calm, open feeling to any space, particularly beautiful in a bedroom, a reading room, or anywhere a quiet horizon is welcome on the wall.
