Here is the finished painting. I included a few gulls floating on the updrafts to give the piece some scale. They also introduce some dynamism into the subject.

I had a very pleasant surprise when a collector contacted me before I was actually finished the painting with the news that she and her husband both loved it and wanted to purchase it for their home. Especially exciting is when a piece of art resonates with someone and when there is an instant connection. The buyer is a writer and has experienced a transcendental moment while standing before the west coat surf a few years ago. This moment of inspiration that informs  her writing was spiritual and as a result this painting of mine connected with her in a spiritual way. As an artist things don't get better than when your work affects a viewer emotionally. A big thanks to Joy and Ray for your support.
