The Pacific Coast of Washington State. AN OIL PAINTING of a wide, rugged, uninhabited seacoast panorama depicted in the style of JAMES WHISTLER during his mature TONALISM period. The time is the Blue Hour after sunset in a MOONLESS CLOUDLESS SKY 1.5 ; the setting is perfect for one of Whistler's Nocturnes. The dominant topography consists of complex, severely fractured, dark basalt accreted terranes and erratic rock formations rising dramatically from a tempestuous ocean. All visible land is defined by jagged, asymmetrical rock faces, deep structural cracks, scree slopes of broken rock, and ancient, water-cut eroded gorges. The vegetation is sparse and rugged, featuring dark, wind-sculpted krummholz (dwarf spruce) that clings tightly to the complex, irregular geometry of the cliffs, rendered in deep forest and sage greens. The water is a turbulent, churning mix of deep cerulean and jade blues, with highly complex, chaotic foam lines crashing against and carving the rocky shore. The light is dramatic and high-contrast, highlighting the complex textures and sharp fractures of the earth tones. No smooth, rounded, or inflated mounds exist; every surface is textured and complex.
