Your painting is beautiful. To take a memory and put it on canvas is a special and unique privilege. As I look at it I can hear the waves lap up on the shore and see the little sea birds run up and down the beach. Memories are a good thing and only get better when we share them with family.

    Thank you so much for your lovely review. New Zealand is a lovely country and the light there makes it perfect for artists as the colours seem to be heightened. So pleased you like this. Suzanne

You are brave to paint the ocean. Your waves are great with the foam on top. I don't paint water too well, that's why I say that. Your colors are great and very pretty shades of blue and a little bit of purple. Very nice painting.

What a very attractive painting! I live on the banks of a canal and have lived overlooking rivers or by the sea most of my live, so seascapes appeal to me greatly. There is great movement in this work as the waves rush towards the shore. Some have lost their power and lap gently and others come rushing in, high with lots of energy. I like the overall energy you have captured with this work.

Suzanne All of my posts are photographs but I was struct by this painting. You duplicated this scene on the canvas so well. The ocean is one of my favorite things in all aspects.you managed to capture the breaking waves so well. Nice Job.

A very moving ocean image - great detail work on the waves- realistic style , seems we can just hold the hand out an feel the water - very well composed I can perfectly imagine this work on a wall in a beautiful frame - great color combination, super splashes, great creative skills on simple objects - great job

Suzanne you have painted wonderful detail and texture into these waves, and shown their color well as they crash against the shore. Very nice detail and clarity in the water around the rock. Nicely done and well lighted.

Skillfully executed oil painting. Your color blending and highlights are stunning. The water / waves are well scaled and very realistic to nature. I really like the way you picked up the purple towards the front. The rock in the lower left adds provides curiosity and consequently grabs the viewers attention - it continues to pull me in for another look. A wonderful demonstration of your competence and artistry.

A lovely painting with good balance, and a limited pallet of clean colours with good blending techniques. You've caught the effect of water and waves at different stages including the texture of the white surf. Well done!
