Description
Original Watercolor Painting
This surfer catching a wave watercolor painting was inspired by an afternoon at the Fort Lauderdale beach watching surfers ride the rolling ocean waves. The scene captures the moment a surfer meets the energy of the ocean as a wave breaks along the shore.
Painted with a limited watercolor palette, the composition relies on the white of the paper to create the highlights in the moving water and sea foam. The surfer’s wetsuit provides the darkest value in the painting, giving contrast and helping anchor the figure within the motion of the wave.

Living by the sea inspires P.J. to paint the rolling surf, shorebirds, and ever-changing skies along the coast. She paints along Connecticut’s Long Island Sound and Florida’s southeastern shore.
