This painting embodies the calm and harmony of nature, showing the beauty of the azure blue water, the beautiful sky, and the impressive rocks. Here is a description of this painting:

This beautiful watercolor painting called Rock island is a masterpiece of art. It skillfully captures the enchanting beauty of an island bringing it to life with delicate brushstrokes. The artwork portrays a captivating interaction, between the land and the sea showcasing the enduring connection between rocks and the maritime environment. It's not an image; it's an exploration that offers a timeless perspective, on this stunning piece of nautical art.

Suluada is a Mediterranean island in Turkey. The name Suluada is a compound word meaning "water island", which refers to the freshwater sources on the island.

In the foreground, there is a white small tourist yacht that floats easily on the crystal clear water. The yacht creates a contrast with its white deck against the incredibly blue water.
In the background, majestic rocks rise, creating a strong and fascinating image. The rocks have different shades of gray and brown, which create textural accents. Next to one of the large rocks, there is a small gorge that reveals the beauty of nature inside. Through this crevice, you can observe a part of the sea with the sky, creating a sense of depth and boundlessness.

The sky in this painting is displayed in a gentle blue color that harmoniously merges with the crystal water. It reflects calmness and cloudlessness, creating a contrast with the impressive rocks. In the background of the rocks and above them, you can see seagulls flying rapidly in their direction.
All these elements combine to create an impression of majesty and tranquility. This painting fascinates the viewer with its simplicity and attractiveness, helping to relax and enjoy the natural beauty.

Every summer I would come to visit her and we would go on plein air trips along the Black Sea coast and the marinas of Odessa. I remember that wonderful summer day, June, everything was blooming and fragrant, there were no people by the sea in the morning, you could only watch the waves of the sea and the silence of the small rocks. After the plein air, we fed the seagulls.

My painting watercolor on cotton paper, using mainly palette brush and watercolor paints.  Watercolors give this work a special lightness and airiness. I like paint with watercolors using the ala prima technique, using the effects of splatter, transparency and color saturation.
