About the Artwork:

“Sunset Over Maui” presents a luminous coastal scene beneath an expansive coral and pink sky. Warm peach tones gather near the low horizon, while a group of pale, flat white clouds stretches across the open sky. Their slender shapes introduce a gentle horizontal rhythm above the deep blue sea, giving the evening light a spacious, unhurried presence.

Bands of blue, turquoise and white suggest waves moving towards the shore. Broken edges and layered marks create a lively surface in the water, where bright passages of foam meet darker lines. Below, charcoal, muted brown and peach tones form a textured beach that anchors the composition. The small clouds offer a quieter echo of the sea’s horizontal movement.

In its 50 × 70 cm portrait format, the painting brings warmth and coastal atmosphere to an interior. The vivid sky catches the eye immediately, while the clouds, surf and shoreline invite a closer look at their individual shapes and surface variations.

"The artwork is delivered stretched on a sturdy canvas frame and can be hung directly on the wall, however no decorative frame is included."

About the Artist:

"The Austrian painter Paul is a passionate artist since childhood. He formally graduated in art and art history before a successful fifteen-year career as a business and technology executive and pioneering startup founder. Returning to his core passion, for which he won painting competitions at a young age, Paul now dedicates himself full-time to creating artwork, utilizing distinct, hand-carved tools to generate intense, physical, and deeply emotional paintings and structures on canvas. In doing so, he bridges his innovative, structured background with authentic creative expression."
