AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Reef — Original, unique acrylic and pencil work on Fabriano Fine Art paper by Swedish artist Johannes Wessmark. 100 × 100 cm

In “The Reef,” clear turquoise water reveals a rocky world beneath the surface. Sunlight traces intricate patterns across submerged stones, while deep blue shadows create a striking sense of depth. Pale rocks emerge along the edge, contrasting with the sea's fluid movement.

"This painting reflects my fascination with water—its transparency, shifting colours, and ability to transform everything beneath it. Through meticulous detail, I invite the viewer to look beyond the surface and experience the quiet beauty of a moment by the sea."

The generous square format gives the work a strong presence, revealing new details as you move closer.
The interior image is a digital mockup illustrating a possible display.

Signed by the artist on the lower right of the front.
Certificate of Authenticity included.
In excellent condition.

The artwork is sold unframed. It will be carefully rolled and shipped in a sturdy protective tube, fully insured and with tracking. The artist covers the shipping cost.

Johannes Wessmark is an internationally exhibited Swedish realist artist, known particularly for his detailed depictions of the human figure and water. His work is held in private and public collections.
