Nosara Shore

This piece explores the interaction between people and the natural world in the coastal landscape of Nosara, Costa Rica. I aimed to convey a sense of the relaxation and connection to nature one can experience on the beach, using minimal brushstrokes to suggest the shapes of people seamlessly integrated into the landscape. By using gestural brushstrokes and warm colours, I aimed to create a sense of movement and life within the piece, while also emphasizing the importance of preserving the delicate balance between human activity and the environment. Ultimately, I hope this piece encourages viewers to reflect on their own relationship with nature and to consider ways to preserve and protect our planet.
