Where the Wave Meets the Sky

Description

In Where the Wave Meets the Sky, the ocean rises into a sweeping, sculptural curve before dissolving into the warm glow of sunrise. Thick, textured layers of oil paint create a dynamic surface that shifts with the light, evoking both the force of a breaking wave and the softness of a luminous horizon.

The composition explores the meeting point between motion and stillness — a fleeting moment where water, light, and atmosphere merge into one. A palette of deep blues transitions into warm peach and gold, guiding the viewer from turbulence toward tranquillity.

This painting is part of Shazia Naqib’s ongoing seascape series, where emotion, movement, and colour come together to create meditative, immersive experiences on canvas.
