Description
Been working on this painting off and on for a month. There were many aspects that I found quite challenging with the water and surf. So it is what it is.
Photoshop and Painter.

When asked to write a few lines about one of his seascapes, Winslow Homer said: "I regret very much that I have painted a picture that requires any description." ~indeed, it is what it is, and it is gorgeous. Superb Ken.
