Morning Swim is part of my Waterworks series.

In the early morning, he takes to the ocean for a refreshing swim. As the sun rises, casting a golden glow on the horizon, he dives fearlessly into the crystal-clear water. Surrounded by waves, he glides effortlessly through the ocean, his hair billowing and dancing in the wind. The sound of crashing waves fills the air, creating a soothing symphony that accompanies his tranquil swim. With each stroke, he feels a deep sense of freedom and connection with the vast, boundless ocean.

This painting was made with oil paints on a cradled wood panel, which does not require framing, as the sides are painted.
