I'm so impressed by people who can paint waves so well. It's really easy to makes waves look terrible and people like this guy make it look easy.

I'm kicking myself because I can't remember the American artist that did such justice to the crashing waves of a coastline, I've posted his work but can't recall his name. A most difficult subject to get right. Ivan Aivasovsky is the only one who comes close to this style.

I don't know the name of the painting, but there's a really striking one of the Pacific Northwest coast in the Seattle Art museum if you ever get the chance to visit.
