A mixed media exploration of a Florida coastal scene, featuring a rustic beach house and palm tree beneath a stormy summer sky filled with seabirds. The piece showcases experimental techniques, particularly in the foreground where instant coffee grounds were sprinkled onto wet paper, dissolving to create natural sandy textures. Pink oleander bushes and reflective water complete the tropical composition, capturing the dramatic atmosphere of an approaching Florida thunderstorm.
