In this painting of sea stacks, I kept the shapes simple. The cliffs and their shadows blended into simple shapes. The differing shades of the sand were reduced to three values. The sea was one simple color broken only by the whites which represent the waves, and the sea stacks which are all different shapes and sizes.
But most of all, simplicity was achieved by eliminating as much texture as possible.
