A Peaceful Morning Above the Sea captures a quiet Mediterranean moment suspended between light and stillness. From a sunlit balcony overlooking the sea, a simple table holds an open book, a cup of coffee, and a straw hat — gentle symbols of rest, reflection, and slow living. In the distance, turquoise water shimmers beneath a soft sky, while warm terracotta rooftops and historic stone walls ground the scene in timeless coastal charm.
Rich 3D texture and layered oil paint bring depth and movement to the water, foliage, and architectural details, allowing light to interact dynamically with the surface. The composition invites the viewer to step into the scene — to pause, breathe, and experience the calm rhythm of a Mediterranean morning.
Inspired by life along the French Riviera, this painting reflects the beauty of everyday moments and the emotional presence of place. It is a work created to be lived with — offering serenity, warmth, and a sense of escape within the home.
