Wait by Pia Stern

Wait (Small < 24") is a contemporary expressive painting. The grey scale colors, paired with simple shapes in the ocean gives this work a contemplative mood. Swift brushstrokes express emotion in the sky.

"This work is part of a series of primarily black and white paintings of the seashore.  Unlike any paintings I had ever done before, rather than painting from my imagination, I worked from quick photographs taken during my early, solitary morning walks on the beach." - Pia Stern
