Portal Sentinel

$975.00

9x12” original oil on canvas panel, unframed

Painted en plein air at Point Pinos, Pacific Grove, California

This piece captures a quiet but powerful moment at the edge of the continent, where sea, sky, and structure meet. Perched calmly on a pier at Point Pinos, the lone gull becomes more than a subject; it becomes a sentinel. A keeper of thresholds. A witness to the light.

The textured palette knife strokes give this work a sculptural presence, from the sea-washed rocks to the soft pastel sky. Everything is alive with stillness, charged, attentive, present.

This painting is for the collector who understands that presence is its own kind of power.

That not everything moves to matter.

That some things hold the line, so the portal can open.
