The artwork titled “Coastline” was created by the artist James Yates in the year 2020. Executed in oil, this piece falls under the marine genre, capturing the serene beauty of a coastal landscape.
The artwork depicts a tranquil shoreline with gentle waves lapping against the sand. Towering mountains stand majestically in the background, creating a striking contrast against the soft blues and greens of the sea. The shore is dotted with bits of seaweed, which are intricately detailed in the foreground. Human figures, albeit small and distant, are seen enjoying a leisurely walk, adding a touch of life and scale to the expanse of natural beauty. The overall scene is one of peaceful solitude, with vivid colors and meticulous brushwork that emphasize the timeless allure of the coastline.
