A rocky headland rises into the frame under a high sun, its mass built from thick palette-knife strokes of warm ochre, umber and chalky grey. Each ridge and facet of stone is placed in a single confident pass, so the surface holds real weight and volume rather than fine detail. A thin rim of sea blue edges the cliff, quiet against the sculpted rock. Expressive impasto and coastal light for a bold, grounding wall piece.
