A wave breaks towards a sandy shore in “Turtle” by Ruth Christiansen. Deep blue and blue-green shades gather beneath the crest, where turquoise passages bring light into the water. White foam rises above the wave and spreads in irregular trails across the shallows and beach.
A dark, almost horizontal horizon separates the sea from a sky of pale blue, grey and lavender. A darker band of cloud lies above the horizon on the right, while the sky is lighter towards the left. In the foreground, warm brown and beige meet cool white foam. Broken brush marks and visible paint texture emphasise the movement of the surf.
Despite the title, the sea and waves are the most clearly defined elements of the subject. Describing how the work came about, Ruth Christiansen says that the image came to her spontaneously, straight from the heart. The horizontal 40 × 30 cm format brings beach, surf and sky together in a small seascape with depth and movement.
