This painting offers a captivating view of Seattle from Alki Point, where the tranquil sky contrasts with the dynamic waves below. The patterns of the waves are inspired by the artistic traditions of the Pacific Northwest tribes, reflecting their deep connection to this landscape. Meanwhile, the rocks upon which the waves crash evoke a sense of raw power and resilience. In the distance, Seattle gleams, a vibrant city that stands in stark contrast to the natural forces at play, symbolizing the harmony and tension between nature and urban life.
