"Distant Rock" presents a tranquil shoreline infused with warm oranges and soft greens, where a single rock formation anchors the distant horizon. Straight lines sweep across the scene, creating an intriguing tension - do they suggest an encroaching element upon the beach, or perhaps a receding tide that hints at impermanence? This piece balances serenity with subtle unease, inviting viewers to reflect on the shifting boundaries between land and sea, permanence and transience.
