Magazine Art Blog from Cornwall

From crashing waves to calm horizons, the sea has long stirred the imagination of artists. Its power, beauty, and ever-changing moods have inspired some of the most iconic works in art history. In this article, we examine how renowned artists such as Leonardo da Vinci, Hokusai, and Claude Monet depicted the ocean in their works. Leonardo da Vinci even created a bird's-eye view of the coastline in 1515, demonstrating an aerial perspective of the Earth's geography.

Seascapes are paintings capturing the beauty of the sea. They show coastlines, beaches and ocean moods. This article delves into seascape art, its history, famous artists, and techniques.
We all love a sunset the world over and will often go out of our way to watch one and try to capture it in a photograph. Likewise, painters love to paint the setting sun and try to capture that fleeting moment when so many beautiful colours are literally thrown into the sky.
Did you know that the ocean covers almost three quarters of the earth's surface? It is no wonder that the coast and sea are a great source of inspiration for many artists and have been for centuries.Many painters have been drawn to the coast to create seascape paintings, paintings of waves, seaside beach scenes, sailing boats on a calm sea, and yachts on a tumultuous sea.

Including Impressionist painters like Claude Monet.
