by the sea Size:40x50 ” - Maria AhlkvistAcrylic painting with a motif of a human sitting by the sea. The motif is mostly in the colors green and brown. "Two favorite motifs I have are the body and abstract shapes. I often explore where the boundaries go between imaginative and abstract, what distortions and simplifications can be made but at the same time maintain a balance or a feeling in the motif" Hanna Peterson
