The Wave

A pale glacial blue sky seems to pour downward into a churning band of indigo. The top third of the horizontal plane is almost serene, a misty field of soft texture that mimics sunlight striking sea spray. Below, layered streaks of navy, teal, and midnight drift like sediment carried by a powerful current. Feathered white lines trace the leading edge of the flow, suggesting foam curling over a cresting breaker. The image feels both frozen and fluid, as if time paused just when the ocean inhaled.

Subtle marbling produces delicate vein-like patterns that echo wet sand left behind by receding water. Occasional sapphire bursts glimmer inside the darker layers, adding depth and movement. The clean edges and lack of figurative elements place the composition firmly within large abstract wall art. Yet the palette and horizontal flow make it equally at home among ocean inspired artwork and coastal beach wall art prints. Hang it wide and low and the room seems to open like a seaside vista.

Denver based painter Jared Hankins trained his eye on realism before moving into the fluid abstractions seen here. Years spent refining oil techniques taught him how light rides along a surface, knowledge he now pushes toward bolder, more atmospheric compositions. Visit Jared Hankins art collection to explore how he shifts between quiet realism and energetic pours. The Wave shows his interest in letting pigment behave much like water, creating natural tides inside the frame.
