Dark Tide

This abstract, impressionist beachscape is an original painting inspired by Katie’s love of Australia’s incredible coastline. Created with brush & palette knife, the piece is painted with professional artist quality acrylics on premium triple primed 12oz Poly cotton. Artwork dimensions 75 x 50 x 4.0cm Frame dimensions 78 x 52.5 x 5.5cm The piece is presented in a custom, hand‑made shadow‑box frame crafted from sustainably sourced natural Victorian ash. It is fitted with D‑rings and hanging wire on the reverse for easy installation. The canvas is constructed with premium pine stretcher bars engineered for strength and long term stability, supported by reinforced gallery standard corner bracing. Heavy duty corner and centre bracing further enhance rigidity and maintain structural integrity over time. The artwork is signed on the front and back, with the reverse also noting the work's title and year. A hand signed certificate of authenticity is included. Katie creates impressionist, highly textured landscapes and botanical pieces using brushes and palette knives. Her work is layered, sculptural and dynamic.
