About the artwork

A sandy path is visible in this coastal landscape, curving slowly towards the sea from the foreground. The surf spreads wide along the horizon, while on the right a lighthouse rises next to a low house. The scene is framed by tall dune grasses that slope inwards, guiding the view towards the centre of the image. The path between the grasses invites one to walk on, towards the shore and the light. The lighthouse stands upright, firmly anchored in the landscape, as a sign of direction and presence.

The colour palette consists of soft tones of blue, off-white, sand colour, light grey, beige and dark blue. The sky shows transitions between light and dark, with strokes reminiscent of a sky full of clouds. The sea is built up in shades of blue and grey, with foam heads running in wide strips towards the shore. The grass has earthy and golden brown tones, with shadows tending towards blue and grey.

The style of the work lies between realism and impressionism. The brushwork is visible and loose, with emphasis on atmosphere, composition and light. The whole is built up in layers, with detail remaining secondary to impression and perception.

You would want to hang this work on the wall because it balances direction and space. The image evokes calm, without stasis, and invites reflection and contemplation. The combination of the path, the sea and the lighthouse makes the painting suitable for any space where you want to come to yourself or let your thoughts run wild. Think of a living room, hall or workplace with natural light.
